Guiding Circles Step 2 (Facilitator Training): Finding New Possibilities
Building on the foundation of Guiding Circles Step 1, this workshop integrates an Indigenous worldview with effective career strategies. Through this process, a wide range of career options are generated and the career circle is explored as a ‘match’ for an individual’s career ideas. Career decision making is conducted by looking at reasons, challenges, resources, decisions and actions. You’ll learn strategies to prepare individuals to overcome challenges along their career path, evaluate their entrepreneurial skills and involve their social circles in decision making, as they relate to the concept of community as a sense of connection and its role in a holistic career support model.
This facilitated two-day workshop will give you new skills to deliver Guiding Circles to your clientele. Although there are no formal pre-requisites, it is highly recommended that participants complete Guiding Circles Workshop 1 first to ensure you understand the foundational concepts that are not repeated in Step Two. Workshop includes:
- Two interactive training days
- Training package that includes a Guiding Circles Booklet 2 and other Indigenous workforce development materials
- Ten Guiding Circles 2 Booklets to help you begin coaching your clients right away
- Certificate of Achievement for successful completion of both training days.
