Facilitation Resources
If you are looking for online facilitation resources, check this page. For more general facilitation issues, I’m working on migrating all my old pages into my WordPress site. This will take a while! 
In the meant time, you can find them all here: http://www.fullcirc.com/facilitation.htm
Hello,
I wanted to know where I could go to learn how to become a graphic recorder?
Hi Venus
There are a couple of options that I know of. The first is the course offered by The Grove – http://www.grove.com — a really deep dive, professional offering.
Christina Merkley at Shift It Coaching offers a workshop once a year.
Patti Dobrowolski occaisionally offers clases here in Seattle, as do I, but Patti is much more of a pro!

Hi Nancy –
About 3 years back, we stopped using stock photos and started using custom drawn illustrations in our training presentations and course material. Got an immediate connect with the audience – I think it may be because stock photos are “too perfect” and somewhere, we all like a bit of imperfection – somehow seems more real. Also with illustrations, you can juxtapose objects, people, concepts in a way you can’t with photographs – eg. early man inventing the wheel, to symbolise innovation.
Anyway, we’ve launched a stock illustrations site called http://www.doodleco.com, which has been specifically created by a training firm and takes into account the needs of the L&D community, while catering to a larger and wider design audience.
Would love your feedback on the same
