TRANSITION TRAINING WORKSHOP January 17-18, 2009

TRANSITION TRAINING WORKSHOP
January 17-18, 2009
Dancing Deer Farm, Templeton, CA

Curriculum: The course includes the "fundamentals" for those wishing to know how to set up, run, and maintain a successful Transition Initiative. It is packed with imaginative and inspiring ways to delve into both the theory and practice of Transition, providing training in the basics of Transition for new communities coming on board, as well as other skills necessary to successfully set up and run a Transition Initiative.

Who should attend: Transition Initiative leaders, steering group members, working group members, and those considering Transition in their communities (whether in San Luis Obispo County or beyond!). We would also like to extend a special invitation to those involved in Post Carbon Institute's Relocalization Network, for in our experience, Transition can be an inspiring and transformative addition to the work of local relocalization groups.

Instructors: The Transition Training Workshop will be taught by Michael Brownlee and Lynette Marie Hanthorn, co-founders of Boulder County Going Local (the first official Transition Initiative in North America, now renamed Transition Boulder County). They each bring more than three years of on-the-ground relocalization experience to the Transition Training, as well as long-time practice in organizational development, group process technologies, and psychospiritual processes.

Schedule: Saturday, January 17, 8:30 registration; workshop runs from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., with breaks for lunch and dinner. Sunday, January 18; the workshop runs from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with lunch break.

Location: Dancing Deer Farm, 2975 Vineyard Drive@ Route 46 West, Templeton, CA 93465.
