The training workshop described below has already taken place.

It is left here as an example of a workshop design that may be repeated in the future. If you would like to host or attend this kind of workshop (or are just curious about what happened) send a message to roger@reviewing.co.uk

This two day training workshop with Roger Greenaway will extend your toolkit of reviewing techniques, and will develop your abilities to use these tools more effectively.

The main focus of this event is Outdoor Management Development (OMD), but most of what you learn can also be applied to other forms of experiential learning.
