Professional Development - Organizational Facilitation


OMSSA strives to build capacity within our members' organizations and communities. This is achieved through a skilled facilitation process. Facilitation is an effective approach to provide the necessary leadership and process skills to achieve success on a variety of fronts such as policy and procedure development, community consultations, client surveys, staff problem-solving exercises etc.

One of the key activities that benefits from OMSSA's organizational facilitation skills is the development and implementation of local policy and procedure manuals in a variety of services program areas. Our links with the provincial government and municipalities ensures that your policy manual will adhere to provincial policies and programs and conform to best practices of CMSMs across Ontario.
