Run more as a workshop using participants’ own experiences to add depth to the theoretical, tutor led input, the learning experience involves participants in self discovery discussions, practical exercises, problem solving, small and group work. There is an emphasis on self discovery and participative exploration.
A highly participative course where participants will experiment with a range of approaches based on their understanding of the theoretical models discussed.
