Professionalism Facilitators Training History
A “Train the LSBA Facilitator” workshop designed to equip speakers in facilitating discussions
to foster inclusive professionalism was implemented in 2011.

A planning retreat was held on Saturday, January 16, 2016, to begin developing a training model
and workshop. A training model and workshop was created, and the goal was to have seasoned
volunteers develop other volunteers and bring in professionals to reinforce the facilitation training
when necessary.

A Diversity Committee Strategic Planning Session was held on August 29, 2020, at the Ritz-
Carlton Hotel, New Orleans, LA.
