COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE
What is the Community of Practice?
The Community of Practice (CoP) is a free monthly event that HueLife hosts on the first Monday of each Month. During these meetings, which will be held virtually for the time being, participants will have the chance to work directly with peers regarding personal facilitation inquiries. These virtual CoP’s will be short “coffee” break meetings, enough time for peer coaching and exchange of facilitation advice/support. Bring a project or facilitation you’re working on or have coming up and trade advice with other practitioners using facilitation in their work. If you are interested in hearing personal inquiries, case studies, networking with other professionals using facilitation methods in their field of work, or just want to learn more about facilitation, attend our next CoP event!
