I think I'm a fairly decent facilitator, and I learned a lot about facilitation techniques that I could use immediately. It also allowed me to put a name to some of the things that I do organically, as well as, refine them. Also hearing the experiences from others in what they got out of the class allowed me to reflect on my own experience.
