Our next Learning Day will be held on Tuesday November 15th at Highfield Park, Hook, (£80 members, £100 non-members, 10am-4pm). The theme for this day will be The Dynamics of Difference: Facilitating Multi-Cultural Competence, and we will be led by highly experienced group facilitator and Gestalt practitioner, David Pritchard. David's creative and experiential approach is underpinned by the perspectives of FIRO theory and Gestalt psychotherapy.  As well as leading groups and training facilitators, David trains counsellors and coaches in gestalt practice and cross-cultural awareness. Email us (or call 0203 282 7128) to book your place.

This promises to be an excellent day for  all facilitators (new, experienced and occasional) to meet, review and share good practice. We anticipate that we will all leave with new ideas, resources and a refreshed practice, having made and renewed our connections.

We are also very pleased to announce the launch of an Advanced Diploma in Transformative Facilitation run by the artgym academy. This is a highly innovative one-year part-time programme designed for experienced practitioners who want to effect positive change and transformation. On successful completion of this programme you will gain dual accreditation with both the Association of Facilitators (Certified Facilitator up to level 3) and artgym academy (Certified Advanced Practitioner).  To apply or for further information, please contact Louise Austin, Course Director: +44 (0)7985 660 256 or artgym academy on +44 (0)20 7033 3777.  This programme starts in November 2016.

Finally, the Centre for Team Development and Supervision in London and Findhorn are offering a bespoke, self-directed Diploma in Supervision part-time over 9 months, starting on 29th October in London.
