Facilitation Skills
Facilitating a course or meeting can be challenging. There are facilitation skills required in order to ensure that the meeting or course is successful. The facilitator needs to be skilled in facilitation techniques, have knowledge of the topic being discussed, and be able to keep the discussion on track.
In addition, they must be able to manage difficult participants and keep the group focused. Without these facilitation skills, it can be difficult to ensure that a meeting or course is successful. However, with proper facilitation skills, a facilitator can help to make sure that a meeting or a learning event is productive and runs smoothly.
