Phase 1: Students will attend a series of lecture seminars that will introduce them to variety of planning, business and communication paradigms that can be applied to drama/theatre facilitation and related work. This will include issues concerning funding, business planning, evaluation and marketing. Keynote lectures will be given on each of these subjects.

Phase 2: Following the intensive workshop students return to the workplace and undertake a series of reflective tasks with tutorial support. First, they appraise their existing planning, business or communication issues that then consider what their current and future needs in this area might be. With guidance from a supervisor a number of potential plans are identified and over the following weeks students select appropriate schema and develop short planning ‘sketches’. At the end of this period students return to LIPA to review these planning documents and negotiate with their supervisor a subject for an extended plan (that is realisable and situated in their current practice).

Phase 3: Students return to the workplace and work on developing and executing the full plan. It is submitted along with a portfolio of two of the shorter documents created in the earlier part of the module.
