Interactive Training on Facilitation Skills

Those who engage directly with the community play a catalytic role in turning theory into action. Facilitation is often the key to driving the desired change. In an effort to enhance the capabilities of experienced facilitators from Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Madhya Pradesh within the Educate Girls team, New Concept designed a tailored training program and module to meet the specific needs of the team.

In March 2024, New Concept conducted a comprehensive 5-day Training of Trainers (ToT) on facilitation skills for the exceptional Educate Girls team in Lucknow. The training sessions were thoughtfully structured to incorporate activity-based learning, focusing on interactive methodologies like storytelling, energizers, and engaging games. They covered different topics such as effective facilitation skills, creating conducive learning environments, different learning styles, qualities of a good facilitator, innovative training methods, and participant management

Practice is a crucial aspect of the training we conduct for trainers. The latter part of the program involved participants engaging in mock sessions to apply their newly acquired skills in a practical setting. Throughout the training, the focus remained on fostering a collaborative environment that encouraged sharing insights and experiences, driving positive change among the facilitators.

Special attention was paid to integrating gender, inclusion, and diversity considerations into the sessions, ensuring a comprehensive approach to learning. From tailored training agendas to extensive mock practice sessions with individualized feedback, every aspect of the program was designed to be energetic, engaging, and results-oriented.

New Concept expresses profound appreciation to the entire Educate Girls team, including key individuals such as Ravindra Pratap Singh Ji, Arvind Ji, and Dalip Ji, for their enthusiastic participation and unwavering commitment to the cause. The collaborative efforts of New Concept Lead Trainers - Dr. Amar Nidhi , Sanjay Sharma , and Dr Sanjeev Kumar - in preparing and executing the training were instrumental in its success.

This training program aimed not only to enhance facilitation skills but also to foster a culture of continuous learning and improvement, standing as a testament to the shared mission of empowering girls and shaping a brighter future. New Concept values the opportunity to collaborate with Educate Girls and eagerly anticipates continued support in their impactful initiatives.
