This interactive course is for new staff at Information and referral (I&R) organizations who will be responsible for handling I&R inquiries, the supervisors who oversee this essential work, and existing staff needing to reacquaint themselves with key principles. The content provides an overview of the activities of an I&R Specialist, a detailed analysis of the I&R process, and the communication techniques required to assist in that process.
It also represents useful preparation for more experienced staff preparing for an Inform USA CRS or CRS—DC examination.
