A Certified Senior SDD Facilitator is an individual expert who is recognized through the SDD Certification Scheme as fully trained and capable of conducting Co-Laboratories independently and as the Lead SDD Facilitator, using the Structured Dialogic Design Process just like a Certified SDD Facilitator. The difference between the two roles lies only in the number, complexity, scope and geographical spread of SDDPs designed and implemented. Co-laboratories conducted by any Certified SDD Facilitator and provided their Triggering Questions have been registered with the Institute for 21st Century Agoras before the actual event, are recognized as compliant with the Dialogic Design Science.
To receive this title, a Certified SDD Facilitator must follow the Procedure to certify as Certified Senior SDD Facilitator.
