WHY? Kara S. says, "The CPLA program seems like the logical next step in achieving my career goals. I have received both academic and real world training, (MLS from an accredited library school and various managerial library positions), but would love to be better prepared for my next desired position as a library director. I am hoping this certification will not only better prepare me for what lies ahead, but give me the edge to be the candidate that will be offered the position." | |||||||||||||||||||
