  • College Library Services To Support Competency-Based Training: New Roles, Skills and Partnerships. Workshop Report. Burnheim, Robert Floyd, Anne Change Strategies Competency Based Education Curriculum Development Definitions Foreign Countries Library Role Library Services Models Policy Formation Postsecondary Education Teacher Attitudes Vocational Education Workshops This report documents the findings from 13 workshops designed to help teachers and librarians work together to identify library services required to support the delivery of competency-training curricula. Two hundred and twenty-eight staff attended the workshops, which were held in Queensland (Australia) between March and July 1992. About 80 percent of the participants were teachers; the remainder were librarians. The report is based on teacher and librarian responses to the following workshop topics: (1) defining competency-based training; (2) the impact of competency-based training curricula on the teaching process; (3) what kinds of library services are needed to support the delivery of a competency-based training curriculum; (4) what library services that existed before the switch to a competency-based curriculum were beneficial to the new curriculum; (5) blocks to the provision of library services in support of the new curriculum; and (6) interventions and activities needed at the college, regional and state levels to improve services. The raw data collected during the workshops, a curriculum development model showing library input, a list of the workshops, the evaluation forms and summary of the evaluation, and a copy of the workshop booklet are appended.
