Best Practices for Planning and Facilitating Virtual Groups

Over the past year and a half, many of us had to rapidly shift from meeting in person to meeting virtually.  While some group work may return to in person, for many groups virtual meetings will continue to the norm.  Successfully hosting a virtual meeting is not as simple as sending out a meeting link and we have all experienced the results when a meeting is poorly planned or facilitated. Virtual formats bring their own challenges and opportunities, and good virtual facilitation takes skill, practice, and planning. This training will focus on best practices for virtual group work, sharing tools and tips to help your meetings be not only more effective but more engaging and hopefully even more fun.
