Course: Participatory Approaches to Build an Engaged Membership
Based on feedback from our communities about their learning priorities, Conscious Consultants and Collective Mind are collaborating to develop a course focused on Participatory Approaches to Build an Engaged Membership. The course is for network leaders and practitioners looking to develop strong member engagement strategies using participatory methodologies. The course is set to be launched in September 2023 and the basic outline of what will be covered can be viewed below.
We are currently looking for network practitioners willing to develop case studies that will be used as part of the course curriculum - to provide tangible and practical examples that illustrate member engagement principles and approaches. If you are interested in sharing a case study, we would extend a 20% discount towards the cost of the course, which will be $425.
