Professional Development at Maranoa Regional Council

State Library of Queensland (State Library) is offering a full day of professional development (PD) at Maranoa Regional Council and you are invited.

Maranoa was successful in its EOI to host PD and its preference for content is reflected in the PD program.

Effective programming and challenging client techniques is a two part workshop. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore approaches for dealing with challenging client behaviour and how to use the WELCOME toolkit to plan, develop and evaluate community programming.

Content will include:

• exploring challenging behaviours and triggers;


• identifying tools and techniques to meet these (from policy to breathing);


• possible actions / responses;


• introduction to the WELCOME toolkit;


• identifying a broad range of potential community partners and project ideas;


• a hands on workshop to put your programming ideas into action
