What is Facilitating Workshops – Practitioner
The ‘Facilitating Workshops – Practitioner’ training is designed for those who have already led several different types of workshops and are looking to broaden their skills in terms of techniques and methods. This training focuses on dealing with ‘difficult’ behaviour of participants and groups, understanding group dynamics, and learning interventions. You will learn to design a workshop process and teaching methods that are tailored to your situation, organization, and desired results. This training aligns with the skills that the International Association of Facilitators (IAF) considers important for facilitators. It is expected that you have mastered the level of the Facilitating Workshops Foundation training course.
Our seasoned trainers bridge the gap between theory and practice, offering invaluable insights drawn from real-world experiences. This comprehensive training goes beyond just improving your facilitation skills. It empowers you to navigate challenging behaviours and complex situations that may arise during workshops, thereby equipping you with a robust skill set for effective workshop facilitation.
