Welcome to LSO's new Professional Development page. The purpose of this page is for all LSO and SIRLS students to be able to benefit from the various professional development opportunities available to us. We hope this will be particularly useful for those who are not able to attend PD events or who are distance students in other locations.
Please give us your feedback on this page, and suggestions about other materials that might be included, by emailing Jill Tinsley or Paula Maez. If you have attended a presentation that you think other SIRLS students might enjoy seeing on this site, and you have been given permission by the presenter to post the presentation materials, or you have a presentation of you own that you would like to share, please feel free to pass the information on to us. We look at this page as a collaborative way for students to find and share professional development information.
The presenters listed below have granted specific permission to post all of the following presentations on the LSO website. Please contact the presenter individually for further use of their presentation.
