OrbitRemote Training for Rural and Remote School Libraries
At Softlink, we know how important your school library is to your community and how challenging it can be to access professional learning when you’re in a rural or remote location.
That’s why we offer remote training sessions, designed especially for school libraries like yours. Delivered live via Microsoft Teams, each session gives you the chance to build your skills, ask questions, and get support from an experienced trainer without leaving your school.
Why Choose Softlink’s Remote Training?
- A 3-hour live and interactive Teams session (all sessions are scheduled in AEST – QLD time)
- Delivered by a Softlink trainer who understands your library’s context
- Session recording provided for your reference
- Small group format (up to 6 participants) for meaningful interaction
- Join from your school, no travel needed
