Course Duration:

- Module 2 – Three days
- Module 3 – Three days
We suggest a space of at least two weeks between modules.
About the Course:
The course will be informal and participatory in nature. It will involve exercises and group work in pairs and small groups, as well as in the whole group. Group members will be asked to take part in discussions around the issues raised by exercises. The course will draw upon the experiences of the participants. The course will work towards participants planning and facilitating a small piece of training. Participants will be expected to undertake a small amount of work between modules.
