Module 2 Blog Competency

I chose this site because it uses competencies as a basis for staff trainging. I thought this was interesting, since we are using comptencies in this class.

I found this blog by searching Google blogs.

Susan Houghton blogs about her presentation on using competencies to design employee training.

"How will competencies help?–job descriptions–evaluations–reveal training needs–address feelings of inequity–help staff adjust and handle change"

My focus is staff issues in public libraries. I had a tough time finding blogs that were aimed at staff issues or management issues, so I opted to go the training route.

I did however, think that it was a real shame that there do not seem to be library directors or library management out there discussing issues together that are specific to management and staff.
