This course will cover such topics as workshop planning (initial, transition, working and termination) and difficult group behaviours and explore strategies to overcome these problem situations. Participants will acquire practical facilitating skills required of group leaders. On course completion, participants will be certified in the delivery of Group Common Assessment through employment planning workshops to clients - applicable to any employment group.
