We had a Networker Session with Desiree Paulsen and Shelley Arendse who are associates of the Community Development Resource Association (CDRA) about their upcoming Advanced Facilitation Course which is happening the week of Monday 11th June to Friday 15th June 2012. We discussed what the course entails and the developmental practices that will be taught and explained during the course. The interview touched on the Inside Out Approach to Facilitation and how facilitators, themselves, are their best tool in any situation.
