These are the keys to successful educational programs. Transforming those hard to reach people can seem impossible. Creating interesting new programs can be daunting. And it can be hard to see how existing programs could be any better.
Whether your ed program is new or already in process, we support the advancement of university, museum, not-for-profit organization, summer camp, and study abroad initiatives through creating, revitalizing, evolving, and leading education programs.
New program development
At Creative Facilitations, we create programs that are not the norm. We do leadership through theatre, mentoring through service. We do gender empowerment while building trails in the woods and deal with “-isms” (racism, ageism, sexism) while camping. We do diversity through Jamaican drumming and Hip Hop.
There are two ways we can work:
When developing a new program, we build a relationship with you to understand your organization and goals for your program. We can then approach the next step in one of two ways:
- Collaborating closely with you from concept development, through the execution and evaluation of your program and into subsequent years, if so desired.
- Once we are assigned the task, you can let us loose to do our development thing – the way we know how. We’ll only contact you at pre-determined steps and/or times.
Program enhancement
Your education program is going pretty well. Perhaps it’s a bit stale, but it does the trick. Maybe some systems do not flow all that well and you just know things could be better, somehow. You want your program to be the best, to have the most impact, to be the most life-changing, and it’s not quite there yet.
It needs to be revitalized.
We have the ability, experience, and passion to take your ed program to a higher level. We’ve done it before and we can do it for you. Our programs have won national awards.
- We’ve enhance already existing education programs by:
- Redefining mission, goals and outcomes
- Bolstering creativity
- Streamlining processes
- Boosting curriculum
- Trouble shooting and problem solving
- Infusing experiential education practice
- Training staff
Program leadership
Leadership of an ed program either makes it successful or a flop. We’re the trouble shooters organizations call when they want quality, sure-fire, amazing leadership.
We get calls to save programs in mid-stream, when they’re on the edge of possible failure, or early in the beginning to ensure success.
Leading programs
Whether you created it yourself or we created it for you, whether it’s a weekend event or a year-long program, our passion for leading knows no bounds. This passion is transferred to participants and creates successful programs, again and again.
Duration of our ed programs can vary: weekend, summer, semester, or multiple years
