Interpersonal Dynamics Facilitator Training Program (IDFTP)

IDFTP is a pre-requisite before applying to the AFTP.   The Interpersonal Dynamics Facilitator Training Program prepares individuals to become skilled facilitators for the popular MBA elective course, Interpersonal Dynamics. After completing the training program, trainees will facilitate sections of Interpersonal Dynamics.

Most facilitators find great satisfaction in having an ongoing working relationship with the school, value their relationships within our facilitator community, and see additional benefits from continued facilitation in their personal and professional lives.

Advanced Facilitator Training Program (AFTP)

AFTP is designed to expand facilitators’ capacity to help students deepen their self-awareness and increase their ability to productively engage in authentic interpersonal and group dialogues.  We explore various topics such as: intervening in groups at 3 levels (Intrapersonal, Interpersonal, Group), “Use of Self” in service of the group, connecting meaningfully across differences, emotional triggers and blind spots, covert processes in groups, resistance in groups, strengthen interventions through the lens of Power Equity Group (PEG). 

August 2024 Update: We are currently accepting applications for the AFTP.
