CPL trainings are designed as a combination of expertise transfer and participatory group process by covering three main perspectives of gaining new “knowledge, skills and abilities”:
- Learning
- Exploration
- Practice
Learning is a process of acquiring new knowledge that happens through theory, examples, case studies, observations and tryouts. All our trainers are senior experts and have bold knowledge and experience in relevant area which they transfer and share during “learning sessions”. Participants learn consciously and unconsciously what increases probability to evidence new competency and use it in a real context.
Exploration means to engage your mind around searching for additional inputs, stimulations and habituations that will help new knowledge and skills to become sustainable, real, applicable in both simple and complex environments. Usually it starts with questions like „what else, how and when to use this?“
Practice is a sweet essence of becoming ready to show what you know and are capable of. This perspective of training is focused on connecting your needs and organizational challenges as a practice background. Interactive sessions intend to be a “safe space” for trying out new knowledge and skills in front of the group, encourage all contributions and initiatives, design projects/implementation processes and receive immediate feedback from trainers and participants as a feed forward for strengthening individual and collective abilities.
Therefore CPL training results are combination of tangible and intangible outputs on individual level (personal development) and collective level (organizational development).
General training results include following outputs:
- Learning methods for starting new initiatives and projects
- Connecting the application of new competencies and real organizational needs
- Design of processes for dealing with burning issues in a group / team
- Integration and involvement of different stakeholders in early stage of a project
- Commitment and efficient implementation of action items designed by the group/team
- Experience of how and why to use participatory processes
- Better collaboration in a daily work
- Building relations between participants in very inspiring way
- Sharing knowledge and experiences between practitioners and different networks (internal and external)
