Libraries and other cultural and memory institutions worldwide play a unique role in delivering lifelong learning to their communities. This subject introduces students to the theoretical, social and historical contexts in which the delivery of education and training for the information and cultural sectors are placed. The design, development and dissemination of training programs are examined across a range of information and cultural settings including, academic and public libraries, prisons, museums, galleries, community organisations and archives. Marketing, advocacy and building practical funding partnerships are also examined. Students are encouraged to become reflective practitioners, employing the research and professional literature to inform their understanding of training and education in the information and cultural sectors and as a lens for shaping practice.
