There are three legal publishers in Australia who provide the online databases that you will use most often: LexisNexis (Lexis+), Thomson Reuters (Westlaw), and Wolters Kluwer (CCH iKnowConnect).
They all provide very good training documentation on their websites, which can be printed out and kept for reference - or you can watch the online tutorials to learn about searching and navigating the databases.

(Note: This video refers to CCH IntelliConnect, however still applies for CCH iKnowConnect)
(Note: This video refers to Westlaw AU, however still applies for the new Westlaw platform)
