Course Outline
This module follows on from Depth Facilitation and Advanced Depth Facilitation in which the participants learnt about the psychology of individuals and groups in facilitated sessions, how to manage themselves as facilitators, and the essential roles and tasks of facilitation when dealing with both on the surface and under the surface processes. This module considers advanced depth facilitation or depth coaching skills, tools and techniques that are appropriate for special and complex situations.
