We are very excited about this partnership with Fielding. There been a close association between the two organizations for a long time, but this projects brings us into new territory. We welcome the opportunity it opens for the entire World Cafe community – to secure continuing educational and professional accreditation for World Caf\u00e9 work, research, and learning programs, and to benefit from the experience and academic excellence that working with Fielding brings.<\/p>\n

In addition, this course is a rare opportunity to work with two of the leading pioneers who have brought the World Cafe processes and principles into the online environment (see their articles on this subject in World Caf\u00e9 Publications<\/a>). Bo Gyllenpalm pioneered the use of World Caf\u00e9 in an asynchronous online environment starting with the Masters course Organizational Development Concepts and Methods<\/em> he presented at Fielding back in 2000, and Amy Lenzo has been following his lead and evolving “real time”, or synchronous, World Caf\u00e9s online since 2008 – see the stories on StoryNet.<\/p>\n

Here’s a statement from Bo:<\/p>\n

I am proud and excited about the cooperation between the World Caf\u00e9 Community Foundation and Fielding Graduate University. I have been working on this for the last 5 years and my vision is for Fielding to be the academic home for the World Caf\u00e9 like Case Western Reserve University is the home of Appreciative Inquiry.<\/em><\/p>\n

The World Caf\u00e9 has been used a lot at Fielding after Juanita Brown presented her dissertation at Fielding, \u201dThe World Caf\u00e9; Living Knowledge through Conversations that Matter\u201d. Having been on her dissertation committee and working with her for more than 17 years it is my pleasure to present an academic online World Caf\u00e9 course at Fielding awarding 6 CEU credits.<\/em><\/p>\n

This 4.5 week online World Caf\u00e9 Signature Learning Level 2 course provides a fundamental understanding of the World Caf\u00e9 theory and method, applying the World Caf\u00e9 principles to bring forth the creative power of conversations and engage questions that matter. Participants will collaboratively develop the capacity to use the World Caf\u00e9 design principles in their own lives and work, and gain a basic understanding of the World Caf\u00e9 hosting practices.<\/em><\/p>\n
