This practice group is for people who have basic training in Clean Language, but who still feel like relative beginners. The emphasis is on practice, not training. This round of practices, the participants have elected to have one participant prepare a transcript of all or part of a session they have done, for the group to review and discuss. Time permitting, they will then practice in pairs, with Gina coaching.
Prerequisite: You need to have a basic understanding of Clean Language and familiarity with the developing questions used to gather information, along with knowledge of Symbolic Modeling’s P/R/O model and resource development. (The equivalent of Gina’s Basics Part I course and first workbook.) You do not need to have training in facilitating change, though you may pick up some learnings about change work that are covered in Basics Part Two.
(If you don’t have training in these skills, contact gina@cleanlanguageresources.com to discuss joining a cohort group for a live online training or check the Upcoming Events page on this site.)
Cost: 5 practices for $75 USD (recordings and transcripts of practices included)
When: June-October, 2023 The 3rd Mondays/Tuesdays of the month
THIS GROUP HAS BEEN CREATED IN RESPONSE TO A REQUEST BY SOME CLEAN ENTHUSIASTS IN AUSTRALIA. FOR THEM, THIS COURSE WIL BE CONSISTENTLY BE THEIR 3RD TUESDAY MORNINGS FROM 8-9:30AM. AET (AUSTRALIA EASTERN TIME).
PARTICIPANTS IN OTHER TIME ZONES SHOULD PLAN THEIR START DATES AND TIMES ACCORDINGLY. NOTE: (1) IF YOUR DAY FOR THIS CLASS WORKS OUT TO BE MONDAYS DUE TO TIME ZONE DIFFERENCES, IN AUGUST 2023 (which starts on a Tuesday), THE THIRD TUESDAY OF THE MONTH IN AUSTRALIA COINCIDES WITH THE SECOND MONDAY IN THE US, FOR EXAMPLE. (2) COUNTRIES DO NOT CHANGE FROM STANDARD TO DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIMES AND BACK ON THE SAME DATES! YOU MAY NEED TO CHANGE YOUR START TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF THE 5 MONTHS. (For example, Gina is in the New York time zone. For her, the meetings will be on Mondays, and she will have to adjust her start time in March, when her time changes and in April when times change in parts of Australia. Just to add to the challenge of computing this, New South Wales falls back an hour on April 2nd. If you are in the Northern Hemisphere, your seasons are opposite of theirs, and your time will be moving in the opposite direction, moving up an hour in March. And if that is not confusing enough, not all of Australia changes to Daylight Saving time, so you folk will have to adjust to AET times. Fortunately, we have each other to help us through this muddle!)
Limited to 10 participants!
Check here for more details and the option to register. (Clarification: you will note the information in the registration page says the course starts before January 16th. The listing is the date on which you will be able to access the information on Ruzuku, our learning platform— always in advance. Sorry if this is confusing; it’s just the way the platform is set up. We will meet on the 3rd Tuesday AET.)
