Creating Enjoyable and Effective Learning spaces for Adults

Discernment and training for ministry is exciting and challenging. Going deeper into our faith is a great opportunity to grow as Christians. This workshop is for anyone who is a current tutor for the Lay Pastoral Assistant and/or Lay Worship Leader courses (or is thinking of becoming one), and for current and new tutors for the re-launched Aldhelm Certificate. We will be covering basic principles of adult learning and facilitation skills and exploring together how to run a successful course. The day will include working with particular course sessions.

Debbie Orriss is Discipleship Coordinator for Salisbury Diocese, with over twenty years’ experience of ministry as a Church Army Evangelist, including teaching and training adults.

David Blundell is a Licenced Lay Minister (Reader) within the Chalke Valley Benefice. He worked for thirty-five years for a major UK Bank in training and organisational roles, and currently he is a learning facilitator / trainer for Later Life, providing workshops for those preparing for retirement.
