Course Description

In this two-day course, "Facilitating Creative Sessions," you will learn the fundamental abilities and information required to successfully guide group sessions in the creative process. You will develop critical soft skills and obtain a thorough understanding of facilitation techniques through a combination of theoretical ideas, hands-on activities, and helpful feedback.

 

We will examine the crucial function and significance of facilitation in creative sessions during the first section of the course. A wide variety of facilitation techniques will be covered, and you'll learn when and how to use each one throughout the design process. Engaging group activities will provide you plenty of chances to put these strategies into practice and get helpful criticism from your peers.

 

The second day will be devoted to developing the essential soft skills required for effective facilitation. You will gain knowledge of practical methods for handling difficult participants and navigating group dynamics. You will have the chance to build canvases and hone your facilitating approach by participating in practical exercises. You will also lead small group workshops, giving you the chance to get insightful comments from other participants.

 

The course will conclude with a thorough feedback and evaluation session where you can reflect on your progress and learn more about issues like post-session direction and facilitating in various settings. You will have access to digital resources and a reading list that has been carefully prepared to aid in your continued development.
