Introductory Talks and Workshops

Often our learners find A Framework for Wise Education® so impactful they want their colleagues and teams to be trained in our system. And we understand. We have seen firsthand the impact of having whole teams trained in this Framework. However, we are also aware it is pioneering. Thus, onboarding whole teams is best done by first holding an introductory talk or workshop. For some, this Framework can be a paradigm shift. Attending an initial talk makes this shift in view easier to integrate and gives a clear picture of what to expect when enrolling in our training.

Creative Lives holds regular Zoom calls on various Framework-related topics to help people understand this groundbreaking approach to understanding human development. (See our event page for upcoming talks or events.)

We also work with individuals and organizations to hold talks and workshops at their location (or over Zoom).

The length and cost of these events vary depending on whether they are virtual or in-person and the group size.
