Pre-Conference Workshop

Advanced Facilitator Training

So you're an experienced facilitator--you've been through training and conducted dialogues or dialogic workshops. What's next? How do you continue to hone your skills? What does it mean to facilitate dialogue in the current political context and in the current generational shift in expectations for engagement? Come to learn about yourself as a facilitator in this complex context. This workshop will feature opportunities to interact with other skilled facilitator participants and practice advanced techniques through scenarios/case studies.
