AHUA Learning Sets bring members together in small groups of six to eight, initially for five facilitated sessions, to focus on topical work-based issues and explore effective ways of dealing with them.
Purpose of learning sets
The purpose of learning sets is to offer an ongoing process of learning and reflection as part of a group. Set members work with each other on a ‘live issue’, offering challenge and support to each other as they consider the issues. It is a collaborative learning approach building on the relationship between experience (action) and reflection.
The AHUA has a successful track record of offering learning sets: over 140 members are either taking part or have participated in an AHUA set to date. Feedback from members indicates that joining a set can be hugely transformational, both personally and professionally.
How and when do sets take place?
Sets meet on a regular basis (approximately every six to eight weeks) for five facilitated meetings.
Meetings 1 and 5 are in person taking place from 9.00 to 16.00; meetings 2, 3 and 4 are held online for half a day.
When meetings are in person, members usually have dinner together the evening before and then meet the following day.
In person sets are generally hosted by the participants with the first meeting hosted by the AHUA in London.
