Pietermaritzburg notes on facilitators for hire
Provincial departments often want a strategic planning facilitator who knows the APP and annual performance plan format and can write up the session quickly for submission. Midlands Meander lodges and guest farms near Howick and Hilton suit a bosberaad or two-day team building away from the office. School governing bodies and principals book workshop facilitators for staff development days, often in the school holidays.
Facilitators and providers in Pietermaritzburg
As the seat of the KwaZulu-Natal legislature and many provincial departments, Pietermaritzburg books a lot of public sector facilitation. Annual performance planning sessions, departmental lekgotla and leadership programmes run from October into the new year, often at a Midlands lodge in Hilton or Howick rather than in town. The city is also a schools and education town, with well-known independent and public schools, a university campus in Scottsville and TVET colleges that book staff development days and assessor training. NPOs in Edendale and Imbali run community workshops in isiZulu. The Msunduzi municipality adds imbizos. Facilitators come from the city itself or drive up the N3 from Durban in under an hour and a half. Cold, misty winter mornings in the Midlands matter for outdoor plans.
