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 Storytelling 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.

ALL NEW EASY PAY PLAN.

LEARN MORE AND GET STARTED

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 Garage 

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 week, 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.

CHOOSE YOUR LEVEL OF ACCESS

Signature Event

If you’re ready to recalibrate and work live
You want time and space to step back, challenge assumptions, and actively work on real design problems with people who understand your constraints. GamiCon is a live ONLINE, participatory working event built for people who want to engage, not just attend.

For people ready to explore what learning can become.

GamiCon48V is a 48-hour global experience for L&D professionals, instructional designers, facilitators, educators, game designers, learning technologists, and curious creators.

You do not need to be a gamer, an AI expert, or online for all 48 hours. Choose your own journey through six destinations, joining the experiences that challenge your thinking and support your work.

You will play, experiment, question, build, connect, and decide what is worth carrying forward. The first journey around the world invites exploration. The second turns discovery into creation.

This is not a conference you simply watch. It is a world you enter.

Partner & Network Events

If you want focused learning in collaboration with trusted partners
You’re looking for practical, relevant programs that connect learning to real workplace challenges, without fluff or hype.

Partner & Network Events are live and online experiences delivered with select collaborators, designed to support applied learning you can actually use in your work.
