Present a PD session with ALIA Top End

Thanks for all those who attended the PD session last night- very interesting.

Now ALIA Top End would love to offer you the chance to run a professional development session in 2015. Running a PD session is an excellent way to present to a kind and understanding audience while building your presentation skills and sharing your knowledge with your colleagues.  PD sessions can cover a wide range of topics in the library and information field, think of an idea and anything is possible.
Have an idea for 2015 or want to discuss please contact me at:  rachel.klesch@hotmail.com
