Learn. Grow. Succeed.
Welcome to the Neal-Schuman Professional Education Network, where you can improve your career skills by learning from the profession's leading practitioners and thinkers.
What is the Professional Education Network?
The Professional Education Network, or PEN, is award-winning publisher Neal-Schuman’s distance-learning program, a collection of webinars and audio seminars led by renowned information professionals. Here you’ll find more than 50 programs designed to further the professional skills of academic and public librarians.
Why should I sign up?
If you’re looking for timely information to help boost your career and keep your skills on the cutting edge, you’ve come to the right place. The Professional Education Network has four advantages that keep it number one for information professionals:
| • Relevance. Unlike the majority of Web-based courses out there, these are specifically library-related: by librarians for librarians. PEN programs showcase the profession's innovators and leaders, with a unique emphasis on best practices, collection development, smart operational strategies, and effective outreach. |
| • Affordability. PEN programs are available for one affordable fee per location. You can invite your entire library staff—and anyone else you can fit in the room! |
| • Immediacy. Take the skills you learn and apply them right away. |
| • Convenience. While conferences and off-site seminars and workshops are valuable training opportunities for you and your staff, it can often be difficult to schedule time away from your library and to fund associated travel costs. With NS PEN programs, we bring the learning opportunities right to you. You can participate individually and you also have the flexibility to integrate these learning opportunities into your library's staff development schedule. |
