Certifications & Learning Programs
If you’re ready to claim credibility and authority
You already know what good learning looks like, but you need stronger language, structure, and confidence to defend your decisions and earn a seat at the table.
Certifications and the Storytelling Trilogy are designed to build judgment, credibility, and professional leverage, not just skills.
The Sententia Gamification Certification Path
The Sententia Gamification Certifications offer a clear, practice-driven progression for professionals who want to design learning experiences that motivate real behavior change, not just content completion.
Each level builds intentionally on the one before it, following the Sententia gamification life cycle and grounding every decision in behavioral science, motivation, and adult learning practice.

Ongoing Community of Practice
If you’re feeling frustrated or disconnected
You care about learning quality, but you’re tired of doing the work alone, reinventing the wheel, or second-guessing decisions late at night.
Game Garage is an ongoing, low-pressure space to think, experiment, and work alongside peers who take learning seriously.
The Game GarageÂ
The Game Garage is where ideas turn into working designs. Inside the all-new Sententia World, members don’t just talk about gamification. They build, test, and refine it.
Each month, we open the doors for live play sessions where you can try out new games, experiment with designs, explore emerging tools and platforms, and see what others are creating in real time. It’s low pressure, hands-on, and often where the best ideas start to take shape.
Alongside that, we host deeper, focused sessions that go beyond play. These are dedicated to the “how to” of design. You’ll break down specific techniques, work through real examples, and build skills you can apply immediately in your own programs.
If you’re looking for a place to experiment, learn by doing, and stay current without doing it alone, this is the community of practice for you.
Game Garage is not just a platform; it's a movement.

GamiCon ATX 2026
AI + Game-Based Design for Real Learning Experiences
September 14-15, 2026
LIVEÂ in Austin, TX
Design gamified and game-based learning with AI that people actually want to engage with.
GamiCon ATX 2026 is a two-day, hands-on design lab for L&D professionals. This is not theory. You will build, test, and refine real learning experiences using AI, from scenarios and mechanics to playable interactions.
The format is simple: short inputs, immediate application, and peer feedback. You will leave with draft designs, interaction models, and reusable prompts.
Day One is build. Day Two is test and refine. An optional After Hours experience with Rory O'Connor, Inventor of Rory's Story Cubes continues the learning through gameplay and conversation.
This is for practitioners who want to get better at the work.

You can build solid training and still watch people go right back to old habits. This certificate is designed to change that.
Across four live online sessions, you’ll work on your own real-world project and learn how to apply gamification and game-based learning to drive action. You won’t just talk about ideas. You’ll design, prototype, test, and refine something you can use immediately.
We’ll guide you through a clear process using the Sententia codified 5-quest Pirate Tales model, along with practical tools and structured playtesting. You’ll leave with a complete design, not just notes.
If you design or deliver training and you’re tired of “good enough,” this is where your work starts to stand out.

Sententia Gamification Certification - Level 1
with Jonathan Peters
June 22 | 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM | Cleveland, Ohio
Live at the USDLA National Conference
This hands-on certification is designed for professionals who want to gamify corporate training, HR compliance, and adult education in a practical, structured way. Participants will work through the Sententia codified 5-Quest Pirate Tales model, a trademarked, proven process for designing learning experiences that are more engaging, motivating, and effective.
Rather than treating learning like content delivery, this certification shows you how to design it more like a game, with story, progression, challenge, feedback, and rewards built in on purpose. You’ll explore how elements such as obstacles, levels, unlocks, boosters, and recognition can increase learner motivation and help drive meaningful action.
This is the only gamification certification that earns recertification credits with SHRM, HRCI, and ATD.
