Become a Certified Facilitator of Adult Learning
In CFAL, Certified Facilitator of Adult Learning, you learn How to Teach, What you Teach. In this self-paced, on-line course we provide one on one feedback as you develop your own in person or on-line training course. Without the Knowledge, Skills and Mindsets, teaching and training become nothing more than show and tell.
Let us know your course ideas and we will work with you to determine if CFAL is right for you!

Who is CFAL designed for? EVERYONE WHO TEACHES ADULTS
Industry and Manufacturing
Industry and Manufacturing
Training manufacturing employees requires equal emphasis on What to do (the procedures) and How to recognize when something is not right (avoiding problems).
Business
Business
Companies who have problems with employee performance and retention have neglected to train their staff in the analytical and problem-solving skills that make them contributing members of the company. Without feeling valued, they move on.
HEALTH PROFESSIONS AND HEALING ARTS
HEALTH PROFESSIONS AND HEALING ARTS
Healing occurs through the opening of all senses and feelings. The competent practitioner, from Physicians and Nurses to Allied and Complimentary Health Professionals, must be trained in the skills of compassion and caring as expressed through words, voice and touch.

What people are saying
Jill,
Thank you so much for what you do! I hope you know how valuable it is for people like me who live in a small town in the middle of nowhere (also one of the most beautiful places you could ever see) to have access to such wonderful training.
Obviously in these tough economic times traveling to such a training is out of the question so thank you for an online course. If you have any others that focus on training I would be interested.
Thank you again!
Bonnie
This has been great. there is so much knowledge in here and I need to go back and review some sections more thoroughly as time permits. this has given me belief in myself as a facilitator, teacher and renewed my inner knowing that teaching workshops is one of my callings.
The information that was most helpful to included information in designing the actual course to meet the needs of various types of learners. Having me list the objectives, then the content, then the teaching/learning strategies forced me to think of how I would get the various points across through a variety of methods. Also extremely helpful to me was the feedback, pointing out areas in which I could improve and areas in which I did well. The one thing I have not previously done, but will do so from now on, is think about facilitating questions ahead of time. I have always taught through listening and responding, like I do in court, but I see the benefit of having questions available ahead of time to keep the learning cycle going. Thank you for this method of teaching. It will be most helpful
Hello Dr. Jill -
I loved this exercise - It really made me think about my objectives and whether they covered what I wanted participants to take away from the course! I am going to use the pre-test and post-test approach when I deliver the course - I think it will be a great tool for participants to measure their own learning and growth!
I'm also going to share the materials with them prior to the session so that we are all thinking about change and how it effects us so that the group will be even more dynamic - great advice!
