Facilitation by Design

An online bootcamp equipping you to design great facilitation experiences.

Whether you're a trainer, coach, consultant or team leader, the ability to facilitate diverse teams through a structured process is a crucial skill in modern times.

As so many of us take our in-person workshops and programs online, the core skills remain the same: a great facilitator is able to intentionally craft a process and guide people through the challenge of solving problems together. It’s more important than ever to be deliberate about every element of the experience you're designing, to ensure your virtual and blended processes deliver the meaningful results you're looking for.

This bootcamp brings together powerful facilitation and process design frameworks from all over the world, translating them into practical insights to boost your skills as a facilitator, no matter the context. 

Our learning style is fast-paced, hands-on and immersive. You'll be applying new skills and mindsets throughout the bootcamp, and you'll walk away with a set of new tools to use in your facilitation work.

What you'll learn:

⚡️ How to design impactful innovation experiences.

Leverage our unique framework for creating effective workshops and innovative experiences for your teams and clients, including how to adapt in-person content for online and blended delivery.

⚡️ How to create an innovation facilitation toolkit.

Leverage best practice and develop a customised toolkit of online and offline facilitation tools that you can apply across many contexts in your work.

⚡️ How to facilitate with confidence.

Discover the art of facilitation and learn how to navigate the conflict and complexity of solving problems together, even when working remotely.

What our learners say:

"The fastest way to get confident facilitating."

-Hai Binh, Project Officer

"SoMA is excellent for straight to the point continuous learning and sharpening of skills."

-David, Head of Product

-Jason, Managing Director

This bootcamp will be delivered online via Zoom at 9:30am - 12:30pm AWST / 12:30pm - 3:30pm AEDT.
