HOW IT WORKS

Our After Hours: Around the Table with the Experts series features one or more distinguished faculty and is designed for global peers like you who want to go deeper into a pertinent issue or topic to strengthen their own knowhow and competence. You can opt to take 1 or 2 Sessions with each Expert:

SESSION 1 
Advanced Content Briefing

In Session 1 – Advanced Content Briefing the expert faculty member delves into an area of specialization, sharing insights, examples and more with the cohort following a structured session flow.

In some cases, this may be more of a traditional presentation. In others (depending upon the topic and the Expert), there may be hands-on activities in which you’ll have the opportunity to participate actively. 

A small amount of the 75 minute Session 1 is dedicated to Q&A, usually clarifications.  

SESSION 2 (OPTIONAL)
In-depth Expert Q&A

In Session 2 – In-depth Expert Q&A, we use a more open, conversational learning approach for in-depth discussion with the Expert. 

Based on what has been shared in Session 1, you and peers are given the floor to share your specific questions and views with the Expert. You can ask for ‘workshopping’ help, or ask the Expert to expand on relevant case studies. 

This is also your opportunity to connect with a small group of experienced peers who have shared interest—and whose situations, ideas, and circumstances may inspire your own work.

PARTICIPANT PROFILE

Typically, you’ll join the Expert(s) and approximately 14 other global peers* who, like you, are passionate, curious and committed to challenging themselves and strengthening their practice. Our After Hours participants have at least five years of field experience and are interested in substantive dialogue with those whose work they find relevant.

*IDD Global Peers include trainers, educators, consultants, coaches, researchers, scholars, equity specialists, facilitators, HR staff and professional development experts, whether working in companies, classrooms, civil society organizations, governments, local communities or wherever else Differences are present. 

No matter your geography, sector or how you came to the field, we welcome you. >> Meet an IDD Global Peer.

Strengthen your own expertise.

Our After Hours sessions are real, facilitated conversations where you learn from and with outstanding leaders and experienced global peers from across the greater Differences field to expand your own insights and competences:
  • Upon enrolling, you’ll take part in an in-depth, specialized briefing in Session 1.
  • Then ask questions, share thoughts, and practice active listening and dialogue in Session 2 (optional) directly with the faculty member. Sessions are 75 minutes long (2.5 contact hours for both sessions).
  • Select Experts offer a single 2-hour session in place of two sessions. This includes both a briefing and in-depth Q&A time.
Participants make meaningful connections, advance topics that matter, and grow the greater community —all at a time when Differences specialists are needed more than ever.
