If you’ve decided to take part in a meeting or discussion for the assessment associated with this outcome, then you now need to start to prepare.

1. Arrange a group
   Obviously you can’t take part in a meeting or discussion without other people! As a general rule a group of 4–6 is probably a good size. This is enough people for a range of opinions to be expressed, and small enough for everyone to be able to contribute. Work with people with whom you feel comfortable. This will make it easier to talk and respond.
