Alchemy Graphic Recording Class

Alchemy Graphic Recording Classes

 

Our classes teach all kinds of people the skills they need to harness the power of Graphic Recording – a potent tool that enables groups of people to work together and problem solve in highly effective, collaborative and sustainable ways.

The essence of Graphic Recording is the ability to capture information and ideas while interactively documenting and supporting group processes. Beneath the surface, effective Graphic Recorders have a deep understanding of business processes, listening for core issues, consulting, as well as message filtering, synthesis and information architecture skills.

Alchemy Graphic Recording trainers have years of experience in teaching this innovative and marketable process. You'll learn how to effectively listen, take quick, accurate notes and draw. We offer trainings each quarter in our Denver and Seattle offices, and provide three types of training:

  • Beginning Graphic Recording: learning the basics
  • Advanced Graphic Recording: honing and expanding your skills
  • Customized Classes: invigorate your team with a Graphic Recording class tailored to your organizations specific needs


Beginning Graphic Recording provides a solid introduction to the craft:
