Getting Attorneys into the Classroom - Why Would You Want Them There?

August 7, 2008 – 9:12 pm

I’m just back from TRIPLL where we spent some quality time talking about ways to deliver point of need training to attorneys and staff using such tools as webinars, remote desktop sharing, videos, etc., in addition to finding ways to make ourselves more visible and available by walking the floors and doing personal follow-up to training. It’s obvious that formal, longer training sessions simply don’t draw our intended audience, regardless of the quality and abundance of the food provided. Considering the fact that attorneys aren’t coming into the library as often as they once did, we have to figure out how to take training to them.

So I’m very interested in this ILTA webinar called “Getting Attorneys into the Classroom - Why Would You Want Them There?” and I thought I’d let you know about it as well. There’s a lot to be learned on this topic from the technology folks, since they experience the same problems we do, but on an even larger scale!

You’ll have to pay a bit more to register if your firm isn’t an ILTA member, but it’s probably worth it. Maybe I’ll “see” you there.

P.S. Attending and speaking at TRIPLL was a great experience. I learned a lot, enjoyed exchanging ideas with the group, and ate way more than I should have. If you’re involved with training, and ever get the opportunity to go, take it! Thanks very much to the group at Lexis Nexis for continuing to offer such quality programs.
