DIGITAL SIMULATION FACILITATOR CERTIFICATION
Scale Up! Digital
Digital Simulation Facilitator Certification (DSFC) is a 100% online training and certification program for one of the world’s leading startup and entrepreneurship simulations, Scale Up! Once certified, you become a certified Digital Simulation Facilitator. This allows you to use the digital strategy simulation with your clients, startups, scale-ups, accelerators, ecosystems, national innovation agencies, or your students.
Scale Up! Is being used by consultants, faculty, accelerators, innovation agencies, and clusters worldwide. It is the perfect investment for your ‘in-COVID’ work.
How it Works
1. Three live digital training sessions
4 hours each, total of 12 hours. The majority of work happens in three live digital training sessions. These three sessions are spread over a four week period, to allow you to reflect and practice between sessions.
2. Digital program and self-reflection
You will have access to a short online program with a small number of project work assignments to complete. These assignments are developed to support your learning and your business development with digital simulations.
3. Your own training
This is done at your own pace, with people, friends, clients, or partners at your end.
The goal is for you to get minimum of three hours of ‘outside training’ to develop your own skills during the program.
4. Complete both – start working
Once you have completed both the Scale Up! Simulation Certification (1) and the Scale Up! Digital Certification (2), you are fully certified and ready to go.
This gives you access to the Scale Up! digital simulation through a monthly subscription model. For €200 per month, you get access to all the digital simulations materials (including Transform! and Supercluster!). Use it freely with your clients, students, prospects, or co-workers. Or you can opt for a fixed fee of €200 per use/per simulation.
