Learning Facilitator FAQs
- How often would I be asked to facilitate?
Facilitators decide how often they provide courses and how they fit this responsibility into their personal and professional calendars.
- Who decides what courses I facilitate?
Learning Facilitators are encouraged to provide instruction in courses that are most needed and requested by our volunteer leaders. A variety of workshops that utilize individual talents, interests and skills are frequently incorporated into localized events and special training days.
- Do I write the courses myself?
Learning Facilitators are given comprehensive manuals or outlines, which include all the background information necessary to facilitate the courses, along with suggested methods.
Talk to your District Volunteer Development Manager or contact and Adult Education Manager at the Girl Scout Service Center.
