Fwd: [NCDD-DISCUSSION] 30% Discount for NCDD Members to Facilitate '15

[Michael R. Wolf]

Anyone interested in attending an online session to experiment with online/remote facilitation techniques?

I've registered, and would be happy to have you join me in our downtown conference room.  

Remotely yours,

Michael

P.S.  Is it "cheating" to have folks face-to-face while experimenting in non-F2F techniques?  ;-)

P.P.S.  The early bird period has expired, but the full ticket price is only $50.

Hi Everyone,

This is a quick reminder that there are 2 days remaining for the early bird discount to Facilitate '15.  Combined with the 30% discount for paying NCDD members, that's only $21 + Eventbrite's $2 fee.  Full price is $50.

Some folks are concerned that they don't want to pay if there aren't going to be many people there.  Well, there's a guaranteed minimum of 35 participants by Feb 1st or the event will be free.

So you'll either find a fantastic critical mass of peers willing to push the edge of the field and experiment with new facilitation techniques that they've brought to the table or everyone gets their money back and the event happens anyway, but just for the people who signed up by Feb 1st.

Hope to see you online!  Here's the link again: http://www.eventbrite.com/e/facilitate-15-tickets-15007043471
