Abstract

Purpose – This is an appraisal of two workshop formats for people involved with, or interested in Therapeutic Communities (TCs). The paper aims to discuss this issue. Design/methodology/approach – The author had the good fortune of being a staff member of two differently organised workshops, both of which aimed to help staff working in TCs with the role of staff member. The origin and structure of the two workshops are described in “Living-Learning Experience” (LLE) and “Learning from Action” (LfA). Findings – This is followed by some observations and reflections made possible by the privileged position of the author's participation in both, within a fortnight of each other. Originality/value – The two workshops could be considered a valuable complementary training tool.
