Hi, Sami - 

What is your budget and timeframe for the training? Having just completed the process of locating and securing a facilitator for a non-library DEI retreat, I can confirm that there's a huge demand for trainers at the moment, and many of them are booked well through the first part of 2023. That demand will also naturally affect how much you should expect to pay for their services, especially if travel is involved.
