Hello Steve and colleagues, ICA Denver was accredited by the University of Northern Colorado, Greeley, to conduct the Imaginal Education course for educators between 1982-1985. Accreditation meant public school teachers who took the course from ICA Denver received a specific number of in-service credits towards their required number of learning credits they had to accumulate each year. The course was conducted several times during that period with Imaginal Ed trainers: John Epps and Karen Wright. LENS International, Malaysia, conducted a total of 6 days of training for 60 technical lecturers (about 20 at a time) of the Malaysia national oil company's technical college: INSTEP, (Institute of Technology Petronas) between 2000 - 2002. Training included the ToP Group Facilitation Methods, Participatory Strategic Planning, and Imaginal Education. Additional mentoring sessions were conducted with the college's "change champions" as a part of major change effort taking place to shift from "lecturing" to "learning facilitation." LENS International, Malaysia, also conducted facilitation skills training for about 18 heads of departments at the Universiti Technology PETRONAS (UTP) in the early part of the 21st Century. This training consisted of the TOP Group Facilitation Methods which they wanted to use in facilitating more productive meetings. Another group of UTP lecturers (about 50 in all) received training in ToP Group Facilitation Methods, Participatory Strategic Planning, and Imaginal Education. UTP was in the midst of a transition from a diploma granting college to a 4-year degree and graduate-degree granting university, hence found these course useful to make the change desired. More recently Dr. Clarence Mann and Dr. John Epps have been conducting graduate school courses for the University of Maryland University College in international business strategy using the ICA's social and corporate process models as part of the course, "Managing Country Risk." John has been teaching the course online for 15 years (as of 2014) and Clancy before that in a classroom setting. In Singapore, LENS conducted strategic planning for the National Institute of Education (that trains schoolteachers), and later conducted strategic planning for three departments, Education, Arts, and Science). 300 senior classroom teachers in Singapore attended day-long sessions on ORID, the Focused Conversation method for use in their classrooms. The Civil Service College of Singapore has conducted courses in ToP Facilitation Skills four to ten times per year for members of the Singapore Civil Service. Nanyang Technical University (NTU) in Singapore conducted ToP Training in Strategic Planning Facilitation for Mechanical Engineering faculty. I hope this information is useful to your research efforts. Regards, Ann Epps LENS International Kuala Lumpur - Singapore - Denver Quoting steve har via Dialogue <dialogue@lists.wedgeblade.net>

Several people in the Imaginal Education Working Group are asking about Educational Structures ICA has had contact with in the past

We did a "Find" in the GAP online database and found this data Did you work with any of these educational institutions? Are there any you've worked with that are not on the list?

Here is the list displayed in a google spreadsheet

<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MIDSOx8sSM53G8zoQr90UP-DZdCwN7icnOytSZQW-L0/edit?usp=sharing>https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MIDSOx8sSM53G8zoQr90UP-DZdCwN7icnOytSZQW-L0/edit?usp=sharing

Can you help us "crowd source" the list and create more complete information?

Thanks!
