BECOMING A COMMUNITY BUILDER

Join Us - Friday, March 14 when creator and facilitator of this program, Ian Hill, will be in Chestermere to meet with local community organizations to discuss why leadership capacity is key to building thriving communities in the 21st Century.  

Are you proud to live in Chestermere and are you willing to invest a little time to make your community better? .      

Then you will be happy to know that Chestermere has been chosen as a Lighthouse Community for the Becoming a Community Builder Program.

Becoming A COMMUNITY BUILDER is a 15 WEEK, competency based, community and professional leadership development program. The program offers two distinct learning tracks to an UNLIMITED NUMBER of community participants. The first focuses on adult community members and is designed for those looking to grow both professionally and as community leaders. The second track is specifically designed to engage and develop leadership capacity amongst high school students.

If you would like to see an increase in volunteerism, greater community ownership and pride, increased business profitability, improved performance for yourself and those around you and the strengthening of your communities resiliency , then BECOMING A COMMUNITY BUILDER is for you and your community.

To be effective, training and development must actually create performance improvement. Seminars, videos, training manuals, and other passive learning process just aren't effective.  We have designed a process that creates behavior change through an innovative 21 day blended learning model we call The Change Continuum - a proven process that supports performance improvement. The 15 week program includes:
  1. Ian Hill launches the initiative in your Community AND returns to celebrate the completion of the program,
  2. 5 workshops via live streaming video (one every three weeks), 
  3. 5 coaching sessions via live streaming video (between the learning sessions),
  4. Weekly reinforcement exercises and motivational emails, 
  5. A learning portal containing on-demand video archives of all sessions, materials and support forum for the dynamic exchange of information amongst all participants, 
  6. A concluding survey to identify the ways in which this program has influenced individuals’ participation and leadership abilities,
  7. The learning portal will be available for use by your community in perpetuity.
