Online Core Training 2022
Led by BC & Alberta Trainers

For those communities at risk for communicable diseases and for remote communities who have limited access to training resources, online training is a great way to connect and learn.
 
​The training will cover all the content as an in-person training: development and practice of all story genres, Sacred, Parable, Liturgical Action with the fourth genre, silence, woven throughout, plus creating sacred space, supporting the community of children, children’s spirituality, the Godly Play environment and getting started.

We use an action/reflection model with some leader presentations and a lot of of interaction. 
​Content is live and pre-recorded.

Zoom:
All training will be held on the Zoom platform. To enjoy the day, with limited technological glitches, participants should have downloaded Zoom to their computer, laptop or tablet, be familiar with it and have stable Internet.
 
Segments within any day will be no more than 90 minutes with breaks. The training is very full and fun - while online, commit to giving it your full attention.

Storytelling and Small Groups:
Each participant will tell a story, by heart, to be shared with the group. To prepare for telling the story, each participant will work with a small group, online, at times outside the scheduled training to explore the story, the story materials and to deepen everyone’s understanding of the story genre.  A trainer will work with your small group to assist. All stories will be pre-recorded. (MP4 format).

Resources:
Each participant will receive all the stories used in the training, handouts and background information, materials for responding to the story, and if needed the materials required to tell the story. 
​Everything will be mailed to you well in advance and the cost of mailing back the story materials is covered in the cost of training. Their prompt return is appreciated.
