The Art of Participatory Leadership takes three full days, lasting from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm. We will have one evening session on the middle day. Please make sure you are available for the entirety of the training.

We encourage all participants to clear their calendars for the full three days. Since this training is based on action learning, if you arrived late, you would miss foundational pieces that are instrumental in building your capacity as a host.

We are committed to finding a way for all who are interested to attend.

We have added to our pricing structure to reflect this commitment and hope to see you in Guelph, April 18-20.

• Organizational Rate (For-profit business or Institution): $1,400 + HST*
• Non-profit Rate (Community Group or Social Enterprise) $1200 + HST*

If a sliding scale still isn’t feasible, please be in touch. We are committed to removing barriers for those who really wish to be there.
