Interactive Workshop and Meeting Design
“If you don’t know where you are going, any road will get you there.” - Lewis Carroll
As educators, leaders, and organizers, we love to delve into our bag of tricks. But the best activity is meaningless if we don’t know why we’re doing it. Develop or brush up on your workshop, lesson, and agenda planning skills in this hands-on session that will take you from theory to application in developing the purpose, goals, and objectives for a workshop or meeting.
This is Blue Door's 2nd Skill-Building and Networking Gathering of the Fall. Our gatherings are always open to the public. Pizza and drinks are provided.
