Why we love Transition Training

I would take the opportunity to rave enthusiastically about Transition training.

A few years ago Naresh Giangrande and Sophy Banks designed Transition Training as a two-day total immersion in the first stages of this evolving process. Since the first course in Totnes in October 2007, 106 training courses worldwide have been organised by Transition Training, with local organizers, and presented by members of a dedicated team of 16 UK trainers to over 2,500 participants.

Courses have been run throughout the UK, as well as in Eire, Sweden, Brazil, Portugal, Italy, Germany and Flanders. Dozens more are being organized and run by local organizing hubs in the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, parts of South America, and Asia, led by a team of multilingual trainers.

Watch a recently made short film about Transition Training.

We re-posted this article from Transition Network.
