We’re running our successful two-day training in Running Great Workshops again this April!
When? Friday 5 April & Saturday 6 April 2019, 9:30am – 6pm both days.
Where? Edinburgh, venue TBC. Wheelchair accessible.
Training and facilitation skills are key to successful organising, campaigning and movement building.
Join us for this dynamic training designed for experienced facilitators wanting to get fresh insights, new trainers seeking ideas and inspiration, teachers, community organisers, campaigners, activists and anyone wanting to learn more skills in facilitating empowering learning experiences.
What does the training cover?
As a participant you will:
- Understand the key principles of effective workshop design and experiential education methods;
- Develop awareness of yourself and your strengths as a facilitator;
- Acquire new tools to increase your options as a facilitator;
- Have the opportunity to take risks, experiment and refine skills in a safe and supportive environment;
- Gain confidence by receiving feedback from experienced trainers and other participants in a small group setting;
- Learn skills for working with diverse learners.
Feedback from our Autumn 2018 training: “This was a total blockbuster training. I’d recommend it to anyone with an interest in workshops.”
