We will go through the different skills that are most important for facilitators focusing heavily on PRACTICE and feedback. We talk about those skills in relation to Soliya’s Connect Program and small group cross-cultural dialogue as well as more broadly on cross-cultural communication and promoting 21st century skills.

Facilitation requires not only effective application of facilitation skills, but also self-awareness: knowing where your blind spots are, what are your strengths and what the issues are that you need to focus on in your personal learning process.

In this training the emphasis is on group sharing and learning together with and from each other – not just from the trainers. This means that your active participation is super important for this training to be successful!

When everyone thoughtfully participates and contributes to the learning process we all will learn from the diverse backgrounds and experiences that make up the training group - and make the training a truly cross-cultural collaboration experience.

Everyone is invited to draw from their expertise and experiences from what ever context is relevant and share those with the group.

1. Your theoretical & practical understanding of dialogue facilitation -as showed through your active participation in group discussions, your facilitation practices, as well as your engagement with the homework material and group activities outside the online sessions.

2. Your attendance - You will be expected to arrive on time & stay for the full training session. If you are going to be late or missing INFORM the trainers as soon as possible. If you can't attend your session, you will need to reschedule a same-week make-up session with another group, so you can make up what you missed.

3. Your technical viability - In order to participate fully in this training we will require you to have the same fully functioning tech that we expect of our actual Connect Program facilitators. If you are experiencing any technical issues during the session, we expect you to proactively work with the tech support to resolve the issue. Any time missed because of tech will count as absence.
