How we approach learning
Our learning and development programming is designed to activate positive change. We ground our training programs in research and our facilitators are experts in their field.
Our training programs and workshops are:
- Experiential: We believe learning by doing is most effective.
- Reflective: We believe in drawing on learners’ lived experience.
- Interactive: We believe there is wisdom in the room. We believe in developing a learning community.
- Practical: We believe that practical application best supports learners in their day to day work and professional growth.
- Transformational: We believe learning is most powerful when it engages in a process that questions learners' beliefs, assumptions and perspectives.
