The importance of ideas in human life
• Ideas inspire us
• Ideas shape our lives
• Ideas influence our actions
• Ideas change the course of history
Sir Isaiah Berlin (1909-1997)
![Page 12: ALIA Board of Directors welcomes you to the National Advisory Congress Canberra 25-26 November 2005](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e305503460f94b2169a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Library and information professionals act as the intermediary between people and ideas
“Intermediaries survive by adding value. If changes in the marketplace render an intermediary’s role less valuable, then the intermediary must adapt. If not, the old intermediary will likely be replaced by a new, more valuable intermediary.”

Libraries help people draw on existing ideas
Libraries can be the catalyst to help people develop new ideas
Different types of libraries link people with ideas for different purposes – public, academic and special
Libraries successfully link people with ideas in different ways - physical, virtual and abstract

Linking people with ideas
Is this a relevant message that the LIS profession should communicate?
If so, how should the message be communicated to:
• an external audience
• key stakeholders
• our membership?

Why CPD?
• Change and the environment (Einstein story)• Maintaining standards and improving professional practice• New grads – there aren’t enough → CPD is the only answer
![Page 31: ALIA Board of Directors welcomes you to the National Advisory Congress Canberra 25-26 November 2005](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e305503460f94b2169a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Highlights of the satellite event
Sheila Corrall – what does the research evidence say on professional competence?
• Role development: new or extensions of old?• Trends: broadening and deepening capabilities• Skills: need generic & context-related to exploit
specialist skills – p37 ‘skill set for the network world’

Professional competence
Need ‘holistic & hospitable’ CPD systems & models for:
• Our own plus our staffs’ development
• CPD needs from student to professional
• Mandatory or voluntary CPD?

ALIA’s role and responsibility
“to encourage, enable and reward the learning and professional development necessary for acquiring and maintaining professional excellence”
• Standards provision, regulation, monitoring, continuous improvement
• Opportunities to develop as a professional
![Page 41: ALIA Board of Directors welcomes you to the National Advisory Congress Canberra 25-26 November 2005](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e305503460f94b2169a/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
How does ALIA provide standards and opportunities for CPD?
1. Administers CPD scheme
2. Provides an annual program of events
![Page 42: ALIA Board of Directors welcomes you to the National Advisory Congress Canberra 25-26 November 2005](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e305503460f94b2169a/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
1. CPD Scheme
• Voluntary, self-administered, random audit
• Web-based, relatively simple categories & points
• The future?
![Page 43: ALIA Board of Directors welcomes you to the National Advisory Congress Canberra 25-26 November 2005](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e305503460f94b2169a/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
2. Program
• Partnerships with RTOs, differing models, some ‘surplus’ sharing
• ALIA registrations, promotions, local support• Groups hold events• Ongoing conferences/symposia• National Office fills gaps• Independent RTOs hold events
![Page 44: ALIA Board of Directors welcomes you to the National Advisory Congress Canberra 25-26 November 2005](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e305503460f94b2169a/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Future issues - providers
• Increase revenue, retain benefits for membership
• Partnerships with RTOs – what model?• ‘Accreditation’ of RTOs (standards) as an
‘ALIA preferred training provider’• ALIA becomes an RTO• Relationships with large institutions • Partnerships with large libraries / consortia /
library schools as RTOs
![Page 45: ALIA Board of Directors welcomes you to the National Advisory Congress Canberra 25-26 November 2005](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e305503460f94b2169a/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Future issues - programs
• Program development priorities? • Competency framework: core and generic • ALIA education standards: Core and generic
knowledge, skills, attributes• 6 EBL: Knowledge ‘domains’• Target different sectors – areas of need• Equity of access – regional model
