The Quaich Inc. invites you to participate in a Facilitator Training for the
Circle of Health 

Sept. 29 & 30, 2009 Belcourt Centre, South Rustico, PEI

 

A workshop is being held on Sept. 29 & 30 for those interested in increasing
their skills in facilitating with the Circle of Health as a framework to
promote knowledge exchange and practical application of knowledge about the
determinants of health in communities, organizations, and educational
settings.  

The program will be highly participatory and relevant to anyone interested
in community development, health promotion and delivery of educational/
learning experiences in the broadest sense, and across a diversity of
contexts. The training uses adult learning methods with high levels of
interactivity, mutual learning, reflection and application.

Schedule: Day 1 will focus on facilitation fundamentals within community/
organizational contexts exploring holistic health, intersectoral
collaboration and cross-cultural knowledge exchange. There will also be an
introduction to facilitating over the Internet.   Day 2 will focus on using
the Circle of Health to engage people with different learning styles in
knowledge exchange, planning and partnership development. There will be a
variety of exercises on applying learning as individuals and in groups.  For
more detail on the workshop visit The Quaich Inc. website at

Julie Devon Dodd and Patsy Beattie-Huggan will be leading the facilitation
and training.  We are especially pleased to welcome two participants from
the Public Health Association of Serbia, who will contribute their
perspectives and cultural contexts during the training. 

Participation is limited to 20 individuals: Seats are open to anyone who has
some experience with the Circle of Health and is eager for further training.
