Workshop facilitation - 3 hour training - online - £185

Learn to run great workshops and facilitate effectively. 

This is a 3 hour, online training workshop where we will cover some theory on planning and facilitating workshops, do some exercises to help you create a great workshop and make time to review some of your own workshop plans, questions and fears as a group. 

The session will be structured in 2 sections - workshop and clinic.

• ​Objectives and understanding your audience
• Structuring your workshop
• Planning activities and materials
• Getting timing right
• Engaging people and working with tricky participants
• ​Facilitation tips

​Clinic

​The second half will be a clinic where participants share a workshop they’re working on or workshop challenge they’re facing and we discuss and work through it together. This could include:

• ​Shaping a rough workshop idea into a solid plan
• ​Making sure your timings are right
• ​Designing exercises for a group
• ​Reviewing your finished workshop plan
• ​Talking through your facilitation fears
