Hey there!

Raise your hand if you are considering attending my Experiential Facilitation 101 course next month... Is the cost preventing you from registering? I'm going to do a contest and give away three free seats to this class December 15-17 in Littleton, CO. Just share this video on Facebook and tag either @TrainingWheels or @MichelleCummings (otherwise I won't know you shared it!) to be entered in the contest. I'll put all of the entries into a hat and alert the lucky winners. This only applies to the Open Enrollment Seats. We do still have two Certification Seats available. Register for the Certification Seat if you are interested in being certified to teach this class to your own students or clients in the future.

Listen to what past participants have to say about what they learned in the course:
New Workshop Opportunity! Matthew, Trevor and I have been busy working behind the scenes on converting many of the in-person games from Team Building From the Toy Aisle into digital format. We're going to host a 3-hour session to introduce you to the new games from the book, but also teach you ways to start developing these kinds of tools on your own. We also strategically put this workshop right before the US Thanksgiving holiday, so you can play-test these games with your loved ones in the virtual space.

When: November 23, 2020
Time: 2:00-5:00p ET (12:00-3:00p MT)
Cost: $50

Session attendees will:

  1. Be able to recognize and apply the central design elements that facilitate the development of successful experiential tool.
  2. Receive the Full Digital Asset Package for all games presented so you can get playing with your teams right away.
  3. Recognize and apply game-design elements into a re-envisioning of existing resources.
  4. Utilize existing experiential theory to develop a new structure and outcome for an existing game or learning tool.
  5. Participate in a makerspace experience that synthesizes all objectives above in the production of a new and unique experiential tool.
