The Education Institute: New webinars for 2013!  We're keeping our prices lowered!

 

The Education Institute is a program of The Partnership, Canada's network of provincial and territorial library associations. Members of each association enjoy member rates on all EI Programming.

 

**Member: $45 , non-member $55**

 

note:  We are migrating to a new web system so registration for 2013 webinars should be available within the next week or so. (sorry for the inconvenience--tech issues...:-( ).  At least you can look and plan ;-)

One hour web conferences are a great way to provide professional development opportunities collectively with your staff team or colleagues. Register, project the web conference in your meeting room, and have a group learning experience with your team. 

 

Web conferences do not require special software. The EI sends simple instructions for participating.
