Workshop OverviewStrong facilitation is shaped by experience, reflection, and a willingness to continually refine how learning spaces are designed and led.
Join us for a brand new two-day workshop that will equip
participants with a new layer of facilitation skills — increasing engagement
and navigating the unknowns that come with training multidisciplinary
groups.
Each day includes scenario-based activities, group discussions, and time to apply concepts directly to participants’ own work.
What You’ll LearnAfter the workshop, participants will be better able to:
- Build self-awareness and introspection as a facilitator
- Design multilingual educational events
- Incorporate safety considerations for both participants and faculty at events
- Create a training evaluation plan
- Practice developing supportive working relationships with co-facilitators
