Dear Community,
Global pandemics have a way of challenging everyone to rethink how we operate as businesses, governments, organisations and well, as human beings. For our part, we at the SDN have looked at ways to reinvent how we provide further value to the community and are pleased to see that our new online course offering, created in close collaboration with our accredited trainers (via the Service Design Network Academy) has been such a well-received example. We look forward to building on the momentum this initiative has created, by offering more courses in the coming weeks and months that are focused on the continued growth, development and success of the service design community. 

This is where you come in!  

To truly realise this goal, we need passionate professionals interested in delivering the kinds of educational opportunities that can make a difference in many a career. That is why we wanted to reach out to you. 

You have previously indicated your interest in the SDN’s Trainer Accreditation programme,, and we would like to invite you to begin the process of accreditation. We appreciate the constraints that many are facing during these uncertain times and we are committed to supporting you in this journey by offering a 25% discount on the fees associated with our regular accreditation. This discount is only valid from 1 May to 5 June 2020. 

The advantages that you, in exchange, receive as an accredited trainer are many. We encourage you to check out our benefits page here to learn more about this exciting opportunity.  

Whether you regularly give internal trainings within your organisation and would benefit from the professional recognition and career boost that our credentials deliver, or whether you deliver public trainings that will become more authoritative thanks to your association with the SDN, we believe accreditation will deliver value to you in many different ways.
