As part of the 2022 LSTA-funded project Libraries Talk About Race, the Wisconsin IDEA (Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity in Action) Team invites library staff to apply to participate in virtual Facilitation Training, which will occur February 3.
Facilitation Training is a 2 hour training provided by The People Company. The goal is to prepare a group of Wisconsin library staff to facilitate group discussions about race. Several of those trained will have the opportunity to facilitate discussions with other library workers about upcoming webinars (in February, March, and April of 2022). The training will prepare participants to:
- Understand their personal facilitation style and adapt their style to different facilitation situations.
- Apply strategies for effective and inclusive large group facilitation where thoughtful, critical dialog can occur.
- Manage group dynamics that may arise in a large group facilitation setting in a way that maintains a trusting, respectful environment.
If you are interested in applying, please take a look at the INFORMATION SHEET, and APPLY for your spot by Wednesday, January 5. Selected participants will be notified by Monday, January 10.
If you have questions, please contact:
Shauna Koszegi, Southwest Library System (skoszegi@swls.org)
Mark Jochem, South Central Library System (mjochem@scls.info)
