"This is an immersive, facilitator-led experience that equips teams with the skills and ways of working needed to innovate with speed and clarity. Voltage Control’s approach helps teams embed AI into their daily rituals, align faster, and accelerate impact across the product development lifecycle."

“Facilitation is becoming one of those human skills that AI can’t replace. The people who learn to facilitate now are going to lead the way forward.”

"Voltage Control met the brief perfectly in the design and structure of our global workshop facilitation program. They took the time to understand the nuances of the objectives, tailoring an approach that was not only comprehensive but also designed to foster productive and engaging sessions and usable outcomes."

"Voltage Control taught us valuable new ways of looking at applying the Design Sprint methodology for larger groups. We have now expanded their toolkits which enables them to push their product teams to drive more innovative outcomes across larger sprint teams."

"The best thing about Voltage Control is that they set up a virtual learning space that covers every aspect of adult learning. They encompass the principles of adult learning without ever talking about it ... they just do it."

“Voltage Control's program taught my how to ask the big WHY. This approach has become my new compass and my new lens, informing my design for every workshop and meeting.”

"Voltage Control’s Facilitation Certification allowed me to name all the skills I was already using, improve them and learn a whole new catalog of ideas, methods and techniques. It also put me in the learner seat again and that value was immeasurable."

"Working with Voltage Control on our Autodesk COS was an absolute blast! They are masters of facilitation and brought so much energy and expertise to the event, perfectly aligning with our theme. The feedback from our CoS attendees was overwhelmingly positive."

"If you want to have systemic change across your organization, Voltage Control's hands-on learning experiences will change the way you design and implement meetings on a macro-level. Their purposeful approach will redefine your culture!"

"I realized my entire role is facilitation. I have to do a lot of lateral influencing. So I use these skills even if it is not a super-structured workshop. I can’t believe every college student doesn’t have to take a class like this."

"If you are looking to learn facilitation for the first time, level up your own skills, or that of your team, then Voltage Control is a great option. After engaging with Voltage Control we are now confidently moving beyond design thinking."

"The certification progam was transformational. I made some mental breakthroughs, gaining insight and awareness about myself, that were really necessary for me to be able to move forward as a facilitator."

"The certification helped me realize that facilitation isn’t about running meetings or putting on a show. It’s about creating environments and experiences. Now my impact is so much greater by facilitating others to be more creative, more collaborative, and more productive."

"Companies need creative solutions that can only be brought forward through leaders that facilitate inclusive conversations. If you are looking for a program to learn how to create a space for your team or clients to truly speak up and build collective solutions, then Voltage Control's Facilitation Certification is for you."

"My purpose and approach are both clearer thanks to this experience. I now aim to facilitate groundbreaking discoveries by channeling collective insights and intelligence to achieve outcomes. And, most importantly, I am now guided by a more meaningful question to pursue alongside the teams I serve.."

"A vital leadership lesson emerged for me during certification. Leaders aren’t just solution providers; they can also be questioners, listeners, and facilitators."

"We weren’t just learning techniques. We were learning to wield them with intent, to understand the why behind the what. It broke down my preconceived notions and built them back up.

“I had my indication that Voltage Control was not just another training institution but took every extra effort to make students feel welcomed, engaged, and valued from the very beginning. This was my first lesson in excellent facilitation.”

“The combination of group work, buddy work, and one-on-ones with the instructor that rounded out the program for me. I really appreciated the connections that were developed and the experience of different ways of approaching facilitation.”

"Voltage Control's Facilitation Essentials training and coaching was probably the most valuable learning experience my team has had in the last decade."

“This journey was transformative, both personally and professionally. I came to reconnect with the parts of facilitation that bring me joy—and ended up building a website that finally expresses my purpose and approach” 

“The Voltage Control Facilitation certificate is one of the most impactful training programs I've experienced. I was able to immediately apply the acquired skills into facilitating sessions with diverse cross-functional teams and leadership within my organization. It has undoubtedly been a game-changer.”

"After these workshops, I’m in a better position to build the next generation of sales leaders who are able to apply remote facilitation and design thinking skills to gain competitive advantage."

"This program was a genuine step up from the foundation certification, focusing less on techniques and more on the ways of “being,” giving me the theory and practices to handle complex projects and relationships. I completed the program with greater confidence in my skills and a rich toolkit of resources."

"Collaborating with cohort partners and build relationships was a real highlight of the program. I got a ton of value out of the 1x1's with Erik. It felt very personalized."

"The cohort mentoring made it so personalized and it is truly unbelievable that people were so kind and connected so deeply."

The camaraderie and sense of care from instructors and cohort really helped to make the information and learning environment productive and exciting.

“The Voltage Control certification was unlike any other learning experience I’ve had. It wasn’t just about acquiring new tools and techniques. It was about reflection, vulnerability, and really understanding myself as a leader.”

"The experience helped me to realize my most passionate areas of facilitation design and refine and focus my ideal areas of expertise. I carry forward multiple mapping strategies that will continue to help me adapt and evolve my practice."

"The opportunity to practice on-the-spot facilitation without a script, combined with the thoughtful feedback (both positives and areas for growth), was incredibly valuable."

“Most professionals are stuck facilitating with no real training—and they have no idea how much better things could be if they would invest in it..”

“I didn’t realize how much extra time it was taking to get things done, until I learned how to structure gatherings to actually lead somewhere."

"This wasn’t your typical certification program—it was facilitation bootcamp meets global mastermind. Every session pulled me out of my comfort zone in the best way and with a diverse circle of facilitators from across the world."

"The continuous learning after certification has truly deepened my skills and confidence. Having mentor office hours to connect with other alumni, see expert facilitation modeled in real-time, receive input from peers, and talk through practical problems has been valuable."
