Creating a bold new future.

Awakening the Dreamer, Changing the Dream

Calgary Facilitator Training Program

Congratulations on your interest in becoming a Facilitator of the Awakening the Dreamer, Changing the Dream Symposium!

An Awakening the Dreamer facilitator training will take place in Calgary, Alberta on March 13 and 14, 2010. (With an optional dinner & connecting evening on Friday, March 12).

This training will feature the "V-2" version or the new global edition of the symposium, which has incorporated feedback from facilitators around the world to powerfully enhance the symposium's ability to catalyze change.

A very full non-residential weekend, this training is being held at 9314 Santana Crescent NW.

This is a non-residential training. Hotels and motels are available nearby and possibilities of housing with volunteer facilitators exist. Please contact the coordinators, Cori or Rose.

The training begins with a full day Saturday, March 13th from 9:00 am to 8:00 pm, and continues on  on Sunday, March 14th from 9 am to 5 pm.

The entire process of becoming a Facilitator is a rich, focused, challenging and, hopefully, deeply rewarding journey and learning experience. We heartily invite you to jump in and join us. Below are some of the specific aspects of the training program that you may want to know about as you consider becoming a Facilitator.

Preparation Period

The Preparation Period begins as soon as you register for the Training, and immerses you in some of the information and concepts that form the heart of the Awakening the Dreamer Symposium. During this time, you will read some of the materials that inspired the Symposium, do some research and investigation, and re-examine your own Daily Practices—among other activities. 

Your registration, and your Preparation Period, can begin whenever you are ready, as long as there is enough time remaining to complete the assignments before the training. Given that people prepare and read at different speeds, the trainees so far have devoted very different amounts of time to preparing themselves. 

Training

The Training is designed for those who are eager to learn the basic elements of putting on a Symposium so that they can immediately go out and bring Symposiums into existence in their communities. The Training is followed by a period of learning additional practical information and skills under the guidance of a mentor who is a trained facilitator, or with a team of people in a local community group. 

Cost 

The total cost of the training is $150.00 CDN for tuition and includes a Training Notebook, printed Symposium Manual & DVDs and includes continental breakfast, light beverages & snacks throughout the weekend. Please bring a potluck dish to share for lunch. All costs can be paid above using PayPal, or by cheque. If paying by cheque, see below.

Scholarships on a sliding-scale basis are available upon request for individuals who need financial assistance.
