Building on best practices from both the International Association for Public Participation (IAP2) and the International Association of Facilitators (IAF), this three day course introduces the essentials of facilitation in the public arena. Participants learn how to design and conduct successful facilitated public involvement events. Designed as a small, intensive, interactive learning opportunity, this course allows participants two opportunities to practice their skills in a safe learning environment with lots of constructive feedback. They leave with an extensive manual and other tips and tools for becoming more comfortable at facilitating different types of meeting processes and techniques.

This is a great course that provides a thorough overview of the fundamental skills for effective facilitation, and provides for the opportunity to implement these skills in practice sessions. This approach to the training provides the participant with the knowledge, techniques and confidence to implement what they have learned immediately.
