The Library Training is conducted online on the WUT LeOn platform. Each participant of the course must log in to the platform independently. Login instructions are always available in the News section on the WUT Main Library website at the beginning of the winter and summer semesters.
After logging on to the e–learning platform, read the materials and take the test. Passing the test is equivalent to passing the training. The training is carried out at the beginning of the semester.
