Facilitator Developers Workshop

Ready to take the next step as a leader in teaching and learning?
The Facilitator Development Workshop (FDW) is advanced training for those who wish to become Instructional Skills Workshop (ISW) facilitators. Designed for educational leaders within divisions and program areas, the FDW prepares participants to guide others through the ISW process and contribute meaningfully to instructional development across the institution.
Building on the ISW experience, the FDW is peer-led and highly experiential. The focus shifts from participating in the model to facilitating it—developing the skills, confidence, and values required to lead others through transformative learning experiences.
Participants will deepen their understanding of:
- Experiential learning principles
- Lesson design and active learning strategies
- Group development and climate setting
- Constructive feedback practices
- Facilitation competencies that uphold the ISW model
Serving as an entry point for many educational developers and instructional leaders, certification as an ISW facilitator carries a commitment to stewarding the integrity, inclusivity, and learner-centred foundations of the program.
If you recognize these qualities in yourself—or in a colleague with a passion for teaching and learning—consider applying or making a recommendation. Facilitators play a vital role in strengthening our teaching community and shaping a culture of educational excellence.
