Organising Modern Learning & Networking Events

Next public social online workshop runs: 1 – 26 August 2016

Although there is a focus on moving classroom training online, there is still a very good reason to offer in-person face to face events for knowledge building and sharing, collaborative problem solving and relationship building. It’s just they will look very different from traditional training!

This workshop looks at how to organise 4 different types of learning and networking events that use experiential, participative, collaborative and technology-supported approaches.

Week 1: World Cafes, Knowledge Cafes and Learning Cafes
Week 2: Innovation Workshops and Ideation Challenges
Week 3: Networking Events
Week 4: Unconferences and Open Space meetings

All participants will become automatic members of the MWL Association.

About this online workshop

This is not a traditional course, where I provide all the content and then test you on it! It is a social experience hosted in a private Yammer group. Each week you are invited to work on a practical activity and then share your thoughts and your work with the rest of the group.

Nothing is compulsory, but you will find that the more you “work out loud” with the other participants, the more you will get out of the workshop. Even showing “raw” examples of your work is valuable for others to see, it doesn’t have to be a perfect product. And of course, it is also helpful to comment on each others work as well as consider how their ideas might work within your own organisation.

You will probably want to commit a couple of hours a week for this workshop, but once again it is up to you how much time you devote to it, and also when you do the work.

The workshop is completely asynchronous – so is suitable for any timezone
