Event Details

Indiana State Library’s Certification Program Director and Legal Consultant, Cheri Harris, will answer the questions she gets most often about becoming certified, staying certified, surviving a random audit, and accumulating LEUs. If you are a library administrator responsible for staff certification or if you’ve wondered about these questions, this webinar is for you:

·         Who needs to be certified and when?

·         Why the wait for a first temporary permit?

·         Do I need to send a new transcript with each application? Do you take electronic transcripts?

·         Should I get a 5-year certificate or a temporary?

·         Do I need 10 or 20 TLEUs? How can I be sure?

·         Are there different requirements for upgrades vs. renewals?

·         Who can renew on-line?

You will also get tips for surviving a random audit, FAQs on LEUs, and pointers for finding free LEUs. Time will be set aside for audience Q & A too! This webinar is eligible for 1 LEU.

(No need to travel to the Indiana State Library, you can attend from the comfort of your own library!)
