Train the Trainer and Facilitation Skills Training:

Potentials Realized also offer strain-the-trainer programs and facilitation skills training programs to enable you to equip your staff with the skills they need in facilitation or training. These can be delivered in-house or offsite across North America.

These programs typically run for 1 - 2days in length and can be customized for your specific needs and budget.

We offer programs for in person facilitation as well as the Virtual Facilitation Skills Intensive which is geared to those needing to facilitate in the virtual domain (conference calls, webinars, virtual training). Both new and experienced group facilitators will benefit.
