Virtual 2025 Level 3 Certification:  

When COVID-19 hit, we adapted, and we are beyond delighted with how effective and memorable the Virtual Level 3 is, as we successfully create a sense of community that is not commonly found in online courses or events.

Nick has discovered the secret island where the legendary Captain Nathaniel Wilson hid his treasure, and he needs your expertise to unlock its mysteries. After sailing the high seas with Nick in Level 1 and exploring the expansive World of Gamification with Lou and Lindsey in Level 2, it's now time to elevate your skills to the highest level.

Rules of the Game: 

  • We’ll supply you with digital copies of everything you need for this adventure.
  • You will support other members of our community as they build and develop their training program. This may include brainstorming with them, but it certainly includes respecting their creative needs, whether that be a quiet atmosphere or joining them – live or virtually – for a glass of wine (or beer, whiskey, lemonade, soda, coffee, tea, water...)
  • While you will be working on your own project, you will join us for all instructional times, small group activities, and social events.
  • You must be fun, have a sense of humor, and be ready to smile.
  • Finally, you are required to enjoy yourself. No moping, complaining, arguing, or negativity. After all, we will be creating fun and engaging experiences for others; we need to model that in ourselves.
  • Prepare to be delighted
