Digital Storytelling Online Certificate Program
Emily Paulos
In our evolving effort to bring our workshops online, StoryCenter is now offering a 10-week course on the digital storytelling facilitation process.
In a series of engaging, two-hour online sessions, we will review and apply StoryCenter’s core principles, curricula, and teaching approaches. Using Digital Storytelling: Story Work for Urgent Times as our textbook, the course will cover material traditionally addressed in our advanced face-to-face workshops, including the Facilitator Intensive, Master Class, Story Facilitation, and Stories Seen Workshops.
