What is the Full Circle Way?
We teach our courses on a variety of platforms. It is our goal to pick the best combination tools and platforms for each offering and to provide students a variety of experiences.
Online training and education can come in many forms and flavors. Rarely are ours simply electronic delivery of static material. We believe learning happens when we learn together, from each other. That’s why Full Circle offerings provide what we feel is a unique advantage: a very personal, engaging learning community approach which focuses on each learner’s interests and needs.
- Small workshops (between 15 and 35 participants).
- Many workshops have two instructors for rapid and personal response.
- Pre-workshop surveys to allow instructors to tailor and design the workshop to fit that particular group of learners’ needs.
- Individual attention and coaching for each participant.
- Encouragement of high levels of interaction and knowledge sharing between learners and workshop facilitators for a learning community formation.
- Rich “cybrary” of resources constantly updated with the latest materials customized to each workshop to meet specific needs.
- Conference calls, live web meetings and chats to provide multi-modal interaction opportunities.
- Hands-on practice by having participants form into teams and work with actual projects.
- Spaces for learner journals, reflection and relationship building.
- For selected offerings, a CD of the entire course for continued learning.
- Options for blending face-to-face and online learning.
- Alumni space after classes for continued conversations, coaching and special events.
