Have you spoken to the Scottish Storytelling Centre? I've been to courses there and thought they were good.

They were more on actual live storytelling (like of folktales, etc), although they had ones on things like using storytelling in education. And I'm sure they could put something together or suggest a provider to you. Anyway, actually it might do the academics good to do a live storytelling workshop...

Hello all,

We'd like to run some courses in Edinburgh on narrative and storytelling.
The course would be aimed at academics and should focus on developing skills
to share research with non-academic audiences. Are there any training
providers you would recommend?

Many thanks,

Kind regards,

Lara
