Have you considered offering a teleclass as a more efficient way to deliver training, enhance group learning and generate more income for your business? 

Or, are you working with a distributed team that requires you to design and facilitate virtual meetings?

When done right, Teleclasses and Virtual Meetings (T/VM) are very effective and inexpensive ways to train, collaborate, and problem-solve. But if they aren't effectively facilitated, T/VM's can be a boring waste of time!

Thank you for addressing my specific questions in class and for being genuinely encouraging and inspiring. I feel that you shared a context and a model for growth relevant to each participant. For me, a novice in the area of teleclass facilitation, you provided practical, non-intimidating, clear information on every aspect of the "craft". More importantly, though, you demonstrated the "gift" of facilitation and the deeply personal, authentic commitment that this work is for you. These aspects of your presence I will want to emulate when I start offering teleclasses exploring wellness, holistic health and spirituality topics. Thank you for designing and delivering this class. --Anna D'Andrea--

It was 5-hours crammed full of valuable advice, learning, and tips, not only from the course facilitator but also from other participants.
