LEGO® Serious Play® training and certification

Learn from the people who wrote the books.

The team that wrote the books on the method, and published the standard for it. Practice-based training in London, Singapore, Seoul, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Melbourne, Bangkok, Munich and live online. You leave as a facilitator, not a participant.

Five-star rated on Google by the people we train

Thought leaders. Professional. Game changers.

We are not focused on the bricks. We are focused on outcomes. We train facilitators and participatory leaders who create serious outcomes, in any meeting, with or without the bricks.

Why SeriousWork

You want gold standard training?

We are the gold standard.

A safe, positive, high-quality learning environment, among respected peers. Our difference is simple: you train as the facilitator, not as a participant. You leave confident enough to use the method the next morning.

Nobody certifies the method officially, so we wrote the standard down and published it for everyone. Hold any trainer to it, including us.

Graduates of our Advanced course holding their certificates behind the system model they built
  1. 1You lead. You don't just watch.On most courses you build as a participant while the trainer runs the session. Here you take the facilitator's role from the first morning, with personal feedback every time you lead.
  2. 2You run a real workshop before you leaveYou and your cohort run a two-hour introduction to the LEGO® Serious Play® method for guests you have never met, then debrief it with your trainers.
  3. 3You are certified against a published standardNot on attendance. Trainers observe you against the competencies in the Facilitator Standard, and any gap gets specific feedback and another observed practice first. Then lifetime access to our graduate community.
