The map of global LIS education resulted from a worldwide survey, as did the proposed LIS education guidelines which are currently undergoing worldwide review. Both initiatives support IFLA's Global vision. SET proposed and coordinated the IFLA Division IV Webinar Series for LIS Students across the Division units. Its aim is to engage LIS students in an international dialogue with the IFLA community about the future of LIS. This collaborative project aligns with the IFLA Strategy. With proposals from 8 countries, three webinars attracted over 1900 registrants and 600+ attendees. IFLA's Global vision led to the creation of the IFLA Academy, a SET Summer School where professionals develop their skills to support the needs of a global society (e.g., using the UN SDGs as a framework). SET webpage is updated at least twice a month. SET has been growing its presence on social media. Since September 2020, SET has created accounts on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter to share news and post events, including webinars. Social media has been used to connect with LIS students through "The Student Spotlight," a BSLISE initiative to highlight the students involved in the BSLISE project, and the "Student Library Voice: Peer to Peer," a SET initiative to facilitate an LIS student network.Item Annual Report 2021-2022: Education and Training Section(International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), 2022-10-20) IFLA Education and Training Section Standing CommitteeDevelop standards, guidelines, and other materials that foster best professional practice: Implementation of IFLA Guidelines for Professional Library and Information Science (LIS) Education Programmes, including formation of the Guidelines Stewardship Committee (SET, LTR and other BSLISE members), translation, promotional workshops, and consideration of procedural and declarative knowledge.
