Experienced facilitators who have taken formal facilitator training (preferably our professional-level course) and have facilitated six or more workshops. Our next class is scheduled for February 28 to March 1, 2012 in Houston TX.
The three-day training session will review, refine, and enhance the facilitation and workshop-structuring skills of the experienced session leader. The students will spend approximately one-third of their time with new content and tools, one-third in participatory demonstration and discussion, and one-third in exercises and practice sessions. The 2011 classes will be taught by Terrence Metz.
