Sponsoring a Workshop
Setup and Information for a Terry Hargrave Workshop


When I have been sponsored for workshops in the past, most groups ask what type of room setup I prefer.  This list is intended to give you an idea of what I like in a room when I make a presentation.  I do my best to provide quality training and I think that this setup works best for me.  Do not worry if you cannot provide this type of setup because I can work in almost any kind of situation if participants are willing to listen.  I'm very "laid-back" and anything but an obsessive-compulsive workshop leader.
 
 

-Chairs set up in a theater or classroom style which allows access to the center of the room.

 
-Video tape player/monitor.  If there are more than 100 people, two monitors work better.  If it is a very large room with more than 150 people, you might consider using a projection player.  If possible, I prefer to have a remote to be able to work the vhs player.

 
-One large blackboard (or erasable marker board) with sturdy foundation.  I really prefer not to use the tripod type if possible.

 
-Wireless lapel microphone if the room requires sound amplification.

 
-Small table.  I do not use a podium and do not stay rooted to one spot when I teach.  I need a small surface, however, to keep my notes and materials within easy reach.

 
-Book table in the rear of the room to serve for ads, brochures, and books.  I think it is helpful to have my books available at the workshop for participants to purchase if they so desire.  I can bring a few books with me if requested, but it works better if you will contact my publishers directly to order books for sales.  They will offer the books to you at a discount and you can return any unsold books. 
Titles:

Most people contact me concerning a particular subject and we work out the title of the workshop in advance.  Unless we have specifically discussed the title of the workshop, I prefer to use the following titles for my professional workshops:
 

 Marital Workshop:
  The Essential Humility:  Therapeutic Processes in Marital Therapy
 Grief Workshop:
  Grief and Loss:  Assessment and Therapy
Aging Workshop:
Finishing Well:  Therapy in the Aging Family
 Forgiveness Workshop:
Families and Forgiveness:  Healing Wounds in the Intergenerational  Family


Travel Expenses:

I am very flexible in trying to accommodate low travel expenses.  I do like a nice hotel room, but it certainly does not have to be fancy.  I will work with you to try and secure the lowest possible airline ticket.  I keep my receipts with me to turn in at the end of the workshop.  Please let me know your reimbursement policy and time frame.

Presenter Payment:

Please contact me about my workshop fee. 

Cancellation Policy:

I have never canceled or missed a workshop that I contracted for.  If I cancel for any reason, I will reimburse you for any workshop related expenses that you cannot recoup due to the cancellation.  If you cancel the workshop, there is no penalty.  I only ask that you reimburse any cancellation fees that I cannot recoup from nonrefundable airline tickets.
