Face-to-face facilitated sessions
Face-to-face facilitated sessions involve having a certified Community Futures facilitator travel to a location in your region to deliver the session in person. All Board Members gather together in that location to attend the session. This could be considered the most traditional method of receiving sessions.
Video conferencing facilitated sessions
Video conferencing facilitated sessions involve having a facilitator deliver the session via video from another location – he or she is “live,” and can interact with participants. Board members gather together in a video conferencing facility to attend the sessions. Video conferencing facilitated sessions can be delivered to only one site at a time.
Online streaming video
Online streaming video is delivered straight to your computer. As well as the video, and the PowerPoint, the price also includes a printable version of the module.
Each pre-recorded online video session is delivered by one our certified Community Futures facilitators – the same people who bring you our in-person sessions. The online sessions cover all the topics and materials included in each sessions module. The oral portion of each session (in which the facilitator talks about the material on-screen) lasts up to an hour.
A group watching an online streaming video together can be led by the Community Futures Manager or Board Chair who has already viewed the video and may act as a facilitator for the session. The exercises related to the video are done throughout the session, while the video is put on pause.
