Training
Training is an educational process. People can learn new information, re-learn and reinforce existing knowledge and skills, and most importantly have time to think and consider what new options can help them improve their effectiveness at work. Effective trainings convey relevant and useful information that inform participants and develop skills and behaviors that can be transferred back to the workplace.
The goal of training is to create an impact that lasts beyond the end time of the training itself. The focus is on creating specific action steps and commitments that focus people’s attention on incorporating their new skills and ideas back at work.
Training can be offered as skill development for individuals and groups. In general, trainings involve presentation and learning of content as a means for enhancing skill development and improving workplace behaviors.
At EWC we specialise in Training services across disciplines, creating and design material if need be the case. We also provide training services to organisations using their own material for work place skills development.
Facilitation
Facilitate means, ‘to make easy’
The Facilitators job is to serve the group. One good measure of effective facilitation is the group feels they have done the work themselves. The facilitator impacts and guides the process but does not give input to the content of the meeting- that comes from the group members. It is an empowering approach for learning and developing new ideas, concepts, processes, systems and decision making.
Facilitation in business, organisational development, and in consensus decision-making refers to the process of designing and running a successful meetings and workshops.
Facilitation concerns itself with all the tasks needed to run a productive and impartial meeting. Facilitation serves the needs of any group who are meeting with a common purpose, whether it be making a decision, solving a problem, or simply exchanging ideas and information. It does not lead the group, nor does it try to distract or to entertain. A slightly different interpretation focuses more specifically on a group that is engaged in experiential learning. In particular this is associated with active learning.
At EWC we specialise in Facilitation services across disciplines. We provide facilitation to assist organisations with communicating business strategy, new concepts, decision making, new processes and systems with immediate effect.
