FacilitationFoundation & Practitioner

  • Feel confident facilitating meetings, workshops and events
  • Includes Facilitation foundation and practitioner course workbooks and exams.

Cultivate the key skills and deep knowledge of the principles and concepts involved in effective facilitation.

On average we spend four hours in meetings a week and deem two thirds of this unnecessary*. Topics discussed in unproductive meetings and workshops that fail to meet objectives often need to be revisited, further decreasing productivity.

Our Facilitation Training and Certification provides the structure to enable specialists and managers alike to facilitate groups, meetings and events effectively – increasing productivity and helping these activities achieve the desired outcomes. Based on the publication “Facilitation: Develop Your Expertise”, our Facilitation qualifications equip individuals with the valuable tools, techniques and skills needed to become a confident facilitator.

  • Enhance productivity.
