Welcome, Future Trainers, Educators, and Course Designers!

I’m Jill N. Henry, EdD, and I’m thrilled to introduce you to a transformative learning experience designed specifically for influential people like you. Whether you’re preparing for a conference, training a team, leading a workshop, teaching one-on-one, or developing online courses to sell, CFAL gives you the tools to design and deliver engaging, competency-focused learning experiences for adults.

Master the Art of Adult Learning with CFAL

The Certified Facilitator of Adult Learning (CFAL) is a self-paced, 20-hour online course that empowers you to create impactful training programs, workshops, courses, or in-services.

The course is the culmination of my experiences teaching physical therapy in community colleges and universities, as well as providing professional continuing education to my peers. It also draws on what I learned while developing train-the-trainer programs for business and industry during my doctoral studies in Adult Education at the University of Georgia. CFAL is my way of sharing those insights and practical tools with you.

Whether you’re training employees, teaching students, or guiding professionals, CFAL equips you to engage adult learners effectively and move beyond simply delivering information to building real-world skills and competence.

Turn Information into Competence

In the professional world, simply presenting information isn’t enough. True learning happens when individuals gain the skills, knowledge, and mindset to apply what they’ve learned. Through CFAL, you’ll discover how to break down your content into meaningful learning experiences that help your audience connect new knowledge to their existing expertise.

Tailor Your Teaching to Your Specific Goals

CFAL isn’t just about theory—it’s about action. You’ll create a customized training plan tailored to your professional goals, whether you’re preparing for a conference, training a team, leading a workshop, teaching one-on-one, or even designing an online course you can sell. If you’ve ever thought about sharing your expertise with a broader audience through virtual platforms, CFAL provides the foundation to make that happen. This course ensures your vision becomes reality, with expert guidance every step of the way.

Design Learning Experiences that Engage and Empower

Effective adult learning starts with clear, step-by-step objectives. CFAL teaches you to organize your material sequentially, aligning each step with your learners’ needs and goals. You’ll master strategies to create hands-on, interactive sessions that turn passive learning into active skill-building.

Get Personalized Guidance and Proven Strategies

The CFAL framework is a structured, “plug-and-play” system designed to simplify course creation. Bring your unique content, and we’ll help you integrate it seamlessly into a proven educational design. Plus, you’ll receive one-on-one mentorship from experienced facilitators, ensuring your course aligns with best practices.

Teach Anywhere, with Confidence

Whether you’re presenting in-person workshops, leading virtual sessions on Zoom, or teaching hybrid formats, CFAL prepares you to deliver engaging and effective learning experiences. By the end of the course, you’ll have a complete, ready-to-go training program that works in any setting.

A Process You’ll Use for Life

CFAL isn’t just a one-time solution; it’s a repeatable approach to designing and delivering educational experiences that make a lasting impact. As you apply this process in different contexts, you’ll establish yourself as a confident, adaptable, and trusted educator.

If you’re ready to elevate your training, instruction, or course development skills, CFAL is your next step. Let’s unlock the art and science of adult learning together!
