Hey everyone! I'm Maryam and I'm new here! I have extensive experience with facilitation in a conflict area in Nigeria. I'm looking to become a full-time facilitator and was wondering if experience is enough to carry my career through. Or, will I need to get IAF's Certified Professional Facilitator (CPF) certification to seem more legitimate? Thanks for your help!

Hi Everyone, I am happy to be a part of the Facilitator Club. I look forward to learning and connecting with my peers.

Hi, 👋 I've been part of this channel since last year, initially just to take a peek, but I have to say this community is addictive 😊. I've fallen into a facilitator role by accident and, despite conducting a number of workshops, have never received formal training. This is why this community and the masterclass have been a great help. Hence, it's time to make a formal introduction. I started my business in 2012 as a simple business coaching firm, which then grew to offer facilitation services, as I do now. I'm happy to connect and chat with other experienced or new facilitators to exchange ideas and experiences. Feel free to reach out to me via this channel or LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emmanuelsetyawan/ 🤝. Regards, Emmanuel

I bumped into this on Linkedin, and it made me laugh. How much of this is you?

For the past weeks, I've worked on a Facilitation Glossary to explain some of the common terms we facilitators use. I always had this in my head and finally found some time to make it happen. Each term comes with a definition, a detailed explanation, and some frequently asked questions. You can browse through the glossary here: https://www.facilitator.school/glossary Let me know what you are thinking and if you are missing a term/explanation! I need to catch up on some other work, but I'm also interested in expanding the glossary further :-)
