Facilitation is the art and science of making it easy for groups to succeed. Our highly praised facilitation courses offer a collection of models, tools and techniques that enable practitioners to:
- Communicate more effectively with individuals and the whole group
- Achieve excellence in a range of techniques and approaches that help groups achieve results
- Learn how to structure events so that the group will achieve their goals
- Overcome performance-limiting behaviours within the group and yourself
- Know how to tackle challenges and difficulties in grousp
- Significantly improve performance and results
We were the first facilitation skills trainers to map the skills and competencies of the International Association of Facilitators to the tools and techniques offered by Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). We are now the first facilitation skills trainers to develop techniques taken from story-telling, hypnosis and metaphor to increase the depth and range at which you can work. In our Creative Facilitator course we also introduce and demonstrate methods including Open Space, World Cafe, and virtual facilitation. Our courses blend these skills and competencies so that you can create excellent results easily for all the groups you work with.

The best international techniques
We have searched worldwide for the very best techniques that transform how groups and individuals within them work. We use these techniques in our own work - as process facilitators, learning facilitators, group and team coaches and managers. We then transform them into courses and programmes for you.
We have revised and refreshed all our open access courses to include an online element so that you can start the course and learn and practice your skills at a time that best suits you. You can also master some of the challenges and advantages of working with others online.
The face-to-face elements of our programmes are focused on helping you to develop and improve your skills.
Additional certification
We also now offer additional certification in the use of relaxation, visualisation and hypnotic patterns – both at practitioner level and master practitioner level.
