​This is the second date of two clinics that will run, primarily to provide mentorship to Talk UX workshop facilitators (5th Aug @ 11.30am | 8th Sept @ 2pm). However, these will also be open to other LTUX Brighton subscribers.

​Workshop clinics

​Would you like some support preparing a workshop (for Talk UX 2025 or for something else)? 

​Come to a 1 hour Workshop clinic with Clara!

​The workshop clinic will be structured in 2 sections - workshop and clinic.

​Workshop

​In the first half we will go over some workshop planning fundamentals and facilitation tips:

• ​Objectives and understanding your audience

• ​Planning content and activities

• ​Preparing materials

• ​Facilitation tips

​Clinic

​The second half will be a clinic where participants share a workshop they’re working on or workshop challenge they’re facing and we discuss and work through it together. This could include:

• ​Shaping a rough workshop idea into a solid plan

• ​Making sure your timings are right

• ​Designing exercises for a group

• ​Reviewing your finished workshop plan

• ​Talking through your facilitation fears

​About Clara

​I’ve been running workshops for 20 years and I love helping people be the best facilitators they can be. Find out more about me on my website. 

​These are my top 3 tips for facilitating workshops:

1. ​Be prepared - Know why you’re running the workshop and who your audience is. Know your content, have good materials and think through a couple of contingency plans.

2. ​Be confident - do whatever you need to do to feel confident, wether that’s practicing, getting a pep talk from your best friend or wearing your lucky glasses

3. ​Have fun - workshops are almost always a chance to have fun, for the facilitator as well as the audience. Relax and enjoy it!
