About UCL

Programme details

Further Details

UCL Institute of Education (IOE) is the world’s leading centre for education and related social science. In February UCL Institute of Education (IOE) was ranked as the world number one for Education for the sixth year in a row, ahead of Harvard, Stanford and Melbourne.

This programme has been designed to meet the needs of those who lead adult learning on the NPQ programmes.

Programme Date: 20th & 21st February

Facilitation is a dynamic, personalised process that empowers and challenges individuals and groups to engage in significant learning. This learning leads to meaningful change in behaviour in relation to professional practice.

Programme Structure

Deadline:

Session 1:

For further details, contact: David James (james.d@gardenschool. edu.my)

Historically , The National College had adopted an approach of facilitation that draws heavily on the work of Goleman and McClelland. Using emotional intelligence and drawing on competencies that manifest themselves as behaviours is critical. It is this model of facilitation that the work of UCL is based on. There is acknowledgement that the skills of facilitation are important in a process of learning that enables the building of skill capacity and adopts a more coaching approach.

On completion of this programme you will be able to deliver the NPQML and NPQSL programmes and be registered with UCL Institute of Education.

Venue: Garden International School, Kuala Lumpur, MAP Costs: Book your place HERE.

Participants will: - explore definitions of facilitation and the role of a facilitator Develop an understanding of adult learning Explore & practice a range of facilitation styles and techniques Offer an opportunity for self assessment and peer assessment against the IOE Competency Framework

Session 2

Recommended Hotel: Hyatt House

The programme will be delivered by Steven Connors an experienced executive head and associate at UCL

Participants will: - Explore strategies for dealing with difficult situations - develop an understanding of how coaching skills can enhance the facilitation of learning Practice planning a session based on the principles of adult learning Consider the merits and challenges of co-facilitation
