January Meet-up
Monday, January 25th, 2021
This Month's Topic: Hybrid Workshop Facilitation - Maximizing engagement and impact
Location: Zoom (connection info will be provided after registration)
Time: 6pm-8pm
Cost: Free for ATD Detroit and other local Chapter Members
Many of us in the learning space have been thrown into the deep end of trying to deliver content and facilitate effective collaboration in a completely remote, virtual environment. As business operations slowly return to normal, however, we find ourselves in an in-between limbo, working with hybrid groups in which some participants are physically present while others still attend remotely. As facilitators, how can we make sure the collaboration experience is equally effective for all attendees? We’ll explore, through case studies and hands-on exercises, best practices for:
- designing hybrid sessions
- planning & preparation for both live and remote delivery
- maintaining remote audience engagement while moderating a live group
Come hang out with a group of facilitators!

The Facilitation Special Interest Group (SIG) is dedicated to helping members hone their facilitation skills, gain opportunities to practice new approaches and techniques, and discuss critical aspects of life as a facilitator.
Whether you're a full-time facilitator or just have an interest in building the skill, this SIG is for you!
For more information about the Facilitation SIG or the upcoming Meet-up, contact Facilitation SIG Organizer Alison Jolliff, ajolliff@oakland.edu.
Note: SIGs are designed for ATD Detroit and other local Chapter Members

What's a SIG?
Special Interest Groups (SIGs) are small groups of members who share an affinity for a particular aspect of Talent Development. Whether it's a specific approach, a certain skill, or a common role in the industry, a SIG helps bring chapter members together to share in an interest.
Anyone can start a SIG - all it takes is a shared interest and a meeting place! To learn more, contact the VP Development, development@detroitatd.org.
