  • Intermediate Level
  • No Upper Limit

    ¡@After going to basic facilitation courses to learn tools, you will discover that in practice, there are scenarios not covered by your training. It's relatively slow to accumulate the tacit knowledge personally. Through this program we aim to accelerate your learning by getting together a group of practitioners to share real life experience. By using experiential approach, we gain hands-on experience and deep sharing.

    Every time we facilitate or participate in a facilitated event it is a learning opportunity. This is an invitation to share what is working and what is not. I will share from my own experience but also we will share together the experience of each individual.

    The day is divided into 2 parts. The morning will be sharing current experiences of facilitation, particularly difficult situations that give the greatest opportunity to learn. In the afternoon we will work on designing responses to 2 case study situations providing participants an opportunity to share and combine different disciplines.

    Each facilitator approaches a client and situation from a different perspective combined of their experience and skill set as well as the needs of the client and the environment we are operating within. This day is a day to share as peers. In addition the information shared the method is also one often found helpful in situations of strong opinion and strong need to learn.
