Dear Colleagues, Mosaic.net International is pleased to announce a new retreat for experienced facilitators being held September 8-13,2002 outside of Ottawa, Canada. Full details available at www.mosaic-net-intl.ca.
There are few workshops or retreats available internationally that allow facilitator's to share experiences, tools and methods. This five day retreat will be a unique forum to exchange advanced facilitation techniques among peers from all over the world and to take your experience to a higher level of facilitation. This is a fully participatory retreat and all participants will be expected to facilitate sessions, exchange experiences and tools with other participants. The Advanced Facilitator's Retreat will be a unique opportunity for facilitators with a broad range of experience to: refresh, upgrade and practice their facilitation skills; learn new, innovative methods & approaches; exchange experiences among peers and perfect their facilitation skills; apply facilitation skills more effectively to their workplace; give and receive feedback on facilitation; connect with a network of highly professional facilitators. The workshop is open to experienced facilitators. Facilitator's who have been trained in PRA/PLA methods, ToP methods, VIPP, Appreciative Inquiry and Open Space or have attended previous workshops organized by Mosaic.net International are encouraged to attend. This workshop will be very useful to: professional facilitator's wishing to upgrade and further develop their facilitation skills; trainers in non-formal education and experiential methods; development practitioners called upon to facilitate organizational and community processes and events; teachers seeking to learn experiential methods; and, anyone spending a significant time working with other groups. The Advanced Facilitator's Retreat will take place in a beautiful rural retreat at the Gracefield Camp and Conference Centre, located in the upper Gatineau Valley about 1 hour from Ottawa. The Conference Centre overlooking Lac Castor offers 240 acres of natural environment with pristine beaches and trails. Full details available at http://www.mosaic-net-intl.ca. We look forward to your participation. ____________________________________________________ Francoise Coupal Mosaic.net International, Inc. 705 Roosevelt Ave. Ottawa, Canada K2A 2A8 Tel: (613) 728-1439; Fax: (613) 728-1154.
