Certification Open House

Learn more about the Voltage Control Facilitation Certification Programs

Let’s face it: the world has changed. The last couple of years has likely encouraged (or even forced) you to adapt, set new goals, and solve problems you didn’t even know you had. Our immersive and highly-participatory certification programs give you the skills and confidence to lead change in your work.

Join us for an open house where we will share about our certification programs and open up the floor to your questions. You will also have the opportunity to hear from previous certification students about their experiences and how the programs have benefitted them.

Erik Skogsberg

What People Are Saying

"The pace and time commitment involved felt just right. Having opportunities to switch partners and build relationships was a real perk of the program. I got a ton of value out of the 1x1's with Erik and wish I had scheduled one for December as well! I really appreciate the asynchronous learning time over the holidays that gave more breathing room for everyone to fit the program work into their busy holiday schedules in ways that worked best for them. Having milestones of 1st draft passes of different aspects of the portfolio built into deliverables along the way was really helpful in building towards the final outcome. Also, timing this such that the in person facilitation summit could serve as a culminating event, was pretty awesome. It was so great to connect with, participate in deep work in the workshops, and grab a beer with other cohort members in person!"

"In addition to Erik being a great instructor, I feel that engaging with other great participants really helped the learning process. I also thought the portfolio work helped me home in on my purpose as a facilitator. I also enjoyed the 1:1s with the instructor."
