Frequently Asked
Questions
How do I join the Facilitator Masterclass?
In four steps. First, add yourself to the interest list. Second, we reply and book a 30-minute orientation call about your goals, the rooms you facilitate, and whether the program is the right fit. Third, if it fits on both sides, we confirm and hold your seat. Seats are confirmed in the order people join the list, and each cohort has 12 seats. Fourth, you have one to two weeks to decide, without pressure. If the next cohort does not suit your calendar, you can take a seat in a later one.
Who is this facilitation training for?
This training is primarily designed for full-time professionals who lead group work within an organization, company, or non-profit. This could include roles such as team leaders, project managers, agile coaches, consultants, or any other position related to group or team collaboration. Since 2020, 285 people from 40+ countries have taken the Facilitator Masterclass, from organisations such as Apple, Nike, Disney, the World Bank, the European Council, the United Nations, AXA, Miro, trivago, National Geographic, Virgin, Siemens and Delivery Hero.
How much prior experience do I need?
No previous facilitation experience is required to enroll in this facilitation training course. Throughout the course, you will learn fundamental facilitation skills and receive actionable tools and templates. If you are more experienced, this course offers an excellent opportunity to deepen your skill, connect with like-minded people and add new tools and techniques to your skillset. If you are unsure if the course is right for you, feel free to schedule a course demo with us.
What is the time commitment?
The time commitment for this course is around 2-3 hours per week over six weeks. The video lessons are very flexible, allowing you to fit them around your schedule. The only fixed part is the 2-hour weekly live sessions, hosted twice on Thursdays to accompany multiple timezones.
What if I am not able to attend a Live Session?
If you miss a Live Session it's not a big deal, since you can watch the recording on our community platform when you have time again. That way, you can always catch up. But Live Sessions are highly interactive, so the experience and learning opportunity is not that same when watching the recording.
What makes this training unique?
This is a
cohort-based training, where a group of participants (cohort) from all around the world progress through the curriculum together. In comparison to other facilitation courses, this creates a more supportive learning environment where participants can also learn a lot from each other.
What tools are used in this course?
The course and the community are hosted on our central community platform, that is accessible through your Facilitator School account. The live sessions are hosted in
Zoom, and during the course we will work a lot with
Miro.
