Engage adult learners in PD that energizes, inspires, and activates


In this 3-day workshop, you will learn what it takes to create spaces where participants feel seen, cared for, challenged, and excited to learn. Drawing from Elena Aguilar and Lori Cohen's book, The PD Book: 7 Habits that Transform Professional Development, you'll learn:

  • A process to determine the purpose of your sessions, how to design agendas with clear outcomes and principles of adult learning in mind
  • How to facilitate intentionally
  • How to assess learning for impact


You'll also be guided in a deep exploration of how to respond to your own emotions when they come up while facilitating PD, how to respond to the emotions of others, and how to navigate complex power dynamics.
