Cooperative CE

CO-OP CE is a new NEO Continuing Education proposal designed to meet the special continuing education needs of the NEO-RLS member libraries of all sizes.

This partnership allows NEO and member libraries to partner to provide CE for large, medium and smaller member libraries, thus increasing the number of CE opportunities for your library’s staff, while providing cost savings to everyone!

Here’s how the program works:

The NEO CE staff will work with a contact at your library to coordinate speakers and other identified programming. This will include “high end” speakers, along with other specific tailor made training identified by you.

Identified/requested programs will be presented at your facility or close proximity to your library, thus reducing the cost of travel and loss of staff time.
The requesting library will identify the number of participants they will guarantee to send to the workshop.
NEO staff will work with you to determine the share cost to the lead library, which should be significantly lower than the per person cost, thus providing a cost savings.

It’s a win-win solution for NEO member libraries that works! Call us today if your library has an interest in participating in this great new CE CO-OP experience!
