LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® is a method for exploring and dealing with real issues and challenges in real time. A workshop with the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® method is not a training course you attend. LSP is a science-based process that draws on extensive research from the fields of business, organizational development, psychology and learning. It is also a facilitated process, and the results and sustainable impact of a workshop are directly tied to the quality of the facilitation. LSP requires a high quality of facilitation to deliver full value.
Foundation Training
To become a certified facilitator of the method gives you the full and complete training necessary for you to master all aspects of the method and successfully implement the method. There is no additional training or certification required beyond this program.
Post Foundation Training
Once you have completed your Foundation Training we offer a range of facilitator development programs referred to as our Post Foundation Training Program.
The general purpose is to maintain, further develop and sharpen the facilitator’s design and facilities skills with LSP and give more inspiration on how to apply the LSP method. Participation in the programs is exclusive to facilitators who have completed the Foundation Training under the Association of Master Trainers.
