Application for Spiral Journey International Facilitator Development Program of the Work That Reconnects - Sept 14, 2024 through March 8, 2025
Thank you for your interest in joining the International Spiral Journey Program to deepen your skills as a Work That Reconnects facilitator.

Returning participants: please use this form for the abbreviated application process

Applications are accepted on a first come, first serve basis, early spring through August 5th for a $50 non-refundable application fee ($75 after June 30th).  The application process includes an online or phone interview to mutually assess whether the course is a good “fit” for your learning goals and life situation. We will give priority for interviews to applicants who have already fulfilled the prerequisites.

The cost of the 6-month program is on a sliding scale between $1,800 and $3,600. The more people who participate at the higher level, the more scholarships we’ll be able to give. We have applicants from all over the world, some of whom are working for social change in areas with very limited resources. All scholarship requests will be evaluated in a second step after a person has been accepted into the program. When allocating scholarships, we give priority to people of the global majority, people from low-income countries and others who face systemic oppression and economic hardship.

Once accepted, a deposit of $750 USD is required to hold your place in the program. All prerequisites will have to be completed by August 15th.

The program is a 6-month online course and learning community with 7 regularly scheduled webinars, online learning platform, study circles, homework, and optional "cafes."  Webinars will be held on the second Saturday of the month at two different times to accommodate multiple time zones.

The course curriculum addresses four "threads":
I.   The Work That Reconnects Concepts and Practices
II.  Facilitation Skills
III. Decolonizing Our Minds and Building Inclusion
IV. Living the Great Turning.  

The Facilitator Development Program is open to beginning and advanced facilitators in the Work That Reconnects.

Prerequisites include: 
1) participation in at least 3 days (minimum 12 hours) of experiential practice in the full Spiral of the Work That Reconnects (retreats, workshops, ongoing study groups, online workshops). 
See workthatreconnects.org/events or spiraljourneyworkthatreconnects.org/programs for upcoming events that you could attend.  Talks and webinars do not fulfill this prerequisite.
2) read books: Coming Back to Life and Active Hope;  
3) diversity/anti-oppression training.  

We require that you fulfill these prerequisites before August 15th, so you are fully prepared to begin the program.

All webinars, forums and study circles are online. Participants need to be relatively comfortable learning and interacting online.

Social Identities:
As part of our work in this course, we will be exploring different facets of our biological and socialized identities, including areas of privilege and oppression.  Because it will help the facilitators to better plan for our work together--and because we hope it will be a meaningful reflection for you on some of the circumstances of your life--we ask you to share some information about how you identify. Please respond in whatever way feels accurate and comfortable for you at this time in your life.
