On-demand programs
Professional learning at the Library
Full- or half-day sessions are available at the Library for teachers and librarians who want to learn more about our collections and services.
Tailored packages covering topics like research skills, web 2.0 tools, the ergo website and other online education resources are available.
We can also arrange viewings of rare collection items and talks by librarians specialising in topics such as children's literature or medieval history.
All professional development programs are designed in accordance with the VIT's standards of professional practice and the DEECD's principles of highly effective professional learning. Certificates of completion are provided.
Sessions can be booked for groups of up to 50. Minimum charges apply. For more information email education@slv.vic.gov.au or call 03 8664 7555.
