LEVEL 1 FAQ

How much do I need to know about play or games? -- No experience required. We just ask you show up with an open mind and willingness to play. 

​

How much facilitation experience should I have? -- We designed our training to accommodate a wide range of expertise. Before each cohort, we gauge participant abilities customize the material and offer a 10+ module online curriculum to scaffold their learning. 

​

Do you offer private workshops? -- Yes, we can deliver trainings to groups of 8+ people (i.e. team, department, network). Contact us today to for more details, scheduling options, and scalable pricing.

​

What went into the development of this workshop? -- After leading 15 peer cohorts (Level 2), we saw an opportunity to make a more accessible experience for anyone curious about play-based learning.

​

Do you offer discounts or referrals? -- Indeed! We have a buddy discount. Register as a pair for $399 (regular price is $299).

​​

Can I skip Level 1? -- Yes! We created the levels mostly to scaffold a learning journey. If you feel confident that Level 2 is the place to start, register for a cohort!

​

Do I have to continue to Level 2? -- Nope! This is a standalone experience and may be enough for what you need. We always encourage people to sign up for Level 2 if you seek more play facilitation skills to lead games in house or with clients. Otherwise, we find that Level 1 folks tend to call on us (or other playful people) to design and lead future team sessions.
