Our quality assured training through the AIM Quality Mark scheme enables learners to apply group facilitation skills to settings such as peer support groups, project teams, activity groups, peer support networks and group training.
During the time that we work together, there is a strong emphasis on forming relationships; we feel this mirrors the theory aspects of this course. Throughout, we aim to facilitate trusting relationships and to build a safe and supportive space. One of our core values is that we all learn from each other, and we achieve this by hearing a diverse range of voices and perspectives.
We have a team of facilitators who draw on our collective experiences of facilitating groups with young people, carers, Black and Asian networks, LGBTQ+ communities, mental health services, staff teams and Blue Light services.
Working with groups can be a transformative experience for both facilitators and participants alike, allowing individuals to share experiences, support and learn from each other. As well as developing core skills for collaboration and communication. Having a foundation of training to support peer supporter roles who work with groups recognises the skill and complexity involved within group work practice. Fostering an environment that promotes trust, connectedness and collaboration, which can contribute to the creation of more spaces, benefitting individuals and organisations. It is vital for establishing those key guiding principles needed to create a safe, collaborative, and structured environments to allow participants to engage openly and authentically.
