Participation in facilitator training does not imply obligation to become a facilitator. All are welcome to participate in the training. Much of what will be covered about attentive listening, attunement and the skills of facilitation can be applied in a variety of relational contexts. In order to be assigned to a Creator Circle as a facilitator, one must have participated in at least one full season of Creator Circles. Since facilitators are by nature a relational role and are assigned as pairs , there are many factors to consider before assigning a team of facilitators to a Creator Circle.
