Permaculture Design Teacher Training: Innovation in Experiential Education

Benjamin Fahrer & Kat Steele

Permaculture is a design system for creating sustainable and regenerative human environments. This Permaculture Teacher's course introduces a revolutionary new way of teaching these concepts of ecological design: by applying the principles of Permaculture to the teaching of Permaculture. The course will cover every aspect of becoming a dynamic, effective educator and promoter of a more sustainable, just future. These techniques can be applied to any teacher in any field. This course offers:

• Diverse teaching methods that work

• Techniques to help you prepare quickly and organize thoroughly

• Building confidence through practice and supportive critique

• Elements for whole-person learning and learning styles

• Teaching of Permaculture techniques, strategies, and materials

• Cultivation of new teachers

• Course planning, marketing, and evaluation

This program provides powerful teaching techniques gleaned from years of Permaculture teaching-wisdom from the instructors' own experience as well as from renowned Permaculture teachers and mentors from around the globe. Course attendees who are already certified in Permaculture Design will be eligible for Permaculture Teacher Certification.

Note: A working knowledge of Permaculture Design is a prerequisite for attending.
