Three Flexible Ways to Train Your Whole Team
Professional development doesn’t have to be one-size-fits-all. That’s why we offer three group training models, designed to work with different staff sizes, budgets, and planning needs.
- Training one team on one topic? Enroll a group in a single course and save.
- Need flexibility and a locked-in PD budget for the year? Use bulk credits and decide on specifics later.
- Want system-wide access with no per-course decisions required? Choose unlimited licensing.
Each option is designed for library leaders who need scalable training without added administrative work.
