Facilitation Training
We offer a range of hands-on practical facilitation courses. Each of them will help you develop and improve your facilitation skills, technique, and confidence.
You won’t learn to deliver shiny presentations telling people what you know. You'll learn to create a space where knowledge can be shared, experimented with and applied. Where learning is discovered, ideas interrogated, and approaches evolve.
Whether it’s a workshop, strategy session or longer training programme these courses will equip you with the capacity to run something that is powerful and produces tangible results.
The Intro Course
What: A practical introduction to the basic tools, techniques, and approaches of facilitating. This is much more than just learning a few tools that you can try out. In this immersive course, you will learn about group dynamics, how you create a space for learning & honest conversation and much more about how and when to use various tools & techniques. You'll gain direct experience and invaluable feedback & advice that you can bring back into your work.
Who: If you’ve had limited (or no) facilitation
experience, you want to move from presenter/trainer to facilitator, or to having a more inclusive & collaborative approach when working with groups of people this course is for you!
The Advanced Course
What: A course designed to help you develop a more advanced facilitation practice and technique. By the end you'll have a deeper understanding of the Modes of facilitation and when to apply them. We'll explore and experiment with how to work in-the-moment, dealing with the unexpected happening and not knowing 'the answer'. You'll learn how to challenge & intervene in a way that creates learning and cultivates psychological safety.
Who: If you have some facilitation experience and want to elevate your skills. If you're a strong second facilitator and want to start leading, or you want confidence with more challenging sessions and situations this course will help you expand your ability and range of approaches.
What to expect
“Practical, Fun, Challenging and exactly what I needed!”
That’s what you should expect to be saying at the end of a facilitation course with Untapp. I'll provide you with tools, techniques and advice, but the key to great facilitation is how and when you use them.
You'll get real practice, feedback, advice and new ideas that you will be able to implement in your work.
Every course is a safe space to put theory into practice. You will learn about yourself, your habits, and your own unique facilitation style. You'll be able to design and deliver sessions that are engaging, interactive, playful, honest, meaningful and fun. Because yes...learning can be fun!
"Jen is as equally (or more) invested in the success of a program as it's creators and regularly goes above and beyond to think and act on what could elevate the experience or surface roadblocks we haven't thought of. I know that Jen ALWAYS has my best interest at heart and wouldn't want to partner with anyone else when it comes to creating great facilitators and leaders."
