Q. What is Power Skills For 2030?
A platform for you to gain the "soft skills" so key to effective collaboration in teams, organizations, and communities
Trainers with proven courses and resources for a range of in-person, digital or hybrid forms of discussion and action-planning
Experienced facilitators and engagement specialists, cost-effectively sharing these resources in alignment with our values
Q. Who Created the Current Content?
An experienced facilitator and colleague named Myriam Laberge converted her in-person facilitation training materials to digital during the Covid-19 pandemic. She named her training platform the Masterful Facilitation Institute but retired in 2021, pursuing her passion for art. We have rebranded MFI as PowerSkills for 2030, are using the same materials for now, and will add new courses in early 2025.
Q. Who is the “We” behind Power Skills For 2030?
The new owners are Vince Verlaan (Canada) and Celeste D Brito (Portugal), experienced facilitators and engagement specialists with extensive international and domestic experience.
Both are skilled trainers with their own course content and unique pedagogy, which will be infused into the PS2030 platform over time.
Q. Why the Focus on 2030?
The Power Skills For 2030 team have dedicated their careers to addressing social and environmental issues in their home countries and internationally. Another core commitment has always been to capacity building and to innovative, impactful methods and processes.
We have recently refocused our work and offerings around Goal 17 (collaborative partnerships), one of the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals for 2030.
