The Staff Development and Training Advisory Committee advises the Library administration and the Staff Development and Training Coordinator on the planning, coordination, and evaluation of the Staff Development and Training Program.  The committee makes recommendations for the establishment of competencies and standards, identifies training needs of library staff, prioritizes those needs, and makes recommendations about how to go about meeting those needs.  The committee participates in planning policy and decision-making efforts regarding the offering of these programs.  The committee reviews and makes recommendations regarding the creation, implementation and ongoing provision of a New Employee Orientation program.  The committee helps to identify, recruit, train, develop, evaluate, and maintain a pool of staff trainers, resource personnel, and facilitators.  The committee shares in accountability for performance of the training program and evaluates the performance of the training program.
