Artgym Academy’s Facilitating Creative Collaboration 10-month course is designed to meet the global need for facilitators fully qualified to lead profound change in groups, organisations and communities through creative collaboration.
On this programme, you will discover and release your own creative potential so you can confidently release the collective creativity of others. Why? Because in the 21st century, creativity is the essential tool for adapting to and leading change.
For the past 15 years, Artgym has worked to transform the way people work in world-leading brands such as Adidas, Sony Music and Amazon. We launched this ground-breaking course to share our award-winning methodologies and techniques with people like you.
Artgym’s Facilitating Creative Collaboration course, based in London and Shanghai, is a part-time online and face-to-face learning experience over 5 modules led by a mix of highly acclaimed guest lecturers, contributors and tutors.

The course emphasises real-world practice alongside theory. We will coach you on how to apply the new mindsets, methods and techniques in your work, enabling you to better tackle issues and deliver solutions as you work towards your Diploma.

Learn practical skills
You will go from good to great, as we equip you with all the practical skills you need for leading profound change through creative collaboration.
Learn from the best
We have designed an exciting blend of five highly immersive learning experiences, taught by acclaimed practitioners, leading academics and guest lecturers who will inspire and ignite your creativity.
Discover your creative potential
Discover and release your creative potential so you can go on to confidently mobilise and release the collective creativity of others.
Develop and grow
You will discover and shape your own unique style of facilitating and leading transformation and change.
Discover the power of the group
You will learn how to draw on the power of the group and work confidently with group dynamics.
Connect with our global community of practitioners
You will join our global community of practitioners who are all committed to leading profound change through creative collaboration. This will give you instant access to a growing support network of valuable contacts to continue learning with.
The course is divided into five modules. Each module is designed to enable you to experience, practice and apply your learnings in order to facilitate creative collaboration across different contexts and stakeholder groups, from initial conceptualisation and design through to delivery and impact assessment.
The course will share Artgym’s years of experience and know-how with learnings drawn from business, academia, psychology, and the arts. But theory can only take you so far. The unique benefit of this course is that it enables you to apply your learning in real time.
The centrepiece of the Facilitating Creative Collaboration course is your Self Expression and Leadership Project (SELP). Over the 10 months, you will research, design and deliver your own self-determined creative collaboration project tackling real needs within your workplace, with your clients or in your community. Our graduates have delivered many inspirational programs as their SELP resulting in profound change in diverse organisations and communities.
The Facilitating Creative Collaboration Advanced Diploma not only enables you to have a tangible, transformative impact in your work; it also provides you industry-recognised marks of professional excellence.
Once you’ve successfully completed the course, you will become an Artgym Certified Advanced Practitioner and an Accredited Facilitator (up to Level 3) with The Association of Facilitators.
The Association of Facilitators (AoF) is a membership organisation dedicated to supporting facilitators through high-quality training, accreditation and supervision. It exists to support everyone working as a facilitator, including managers, leaders, development professionals and consultants working with private, public, charity and education bodies — in fact, anyone, in any industry, who leads groups and teams.
As a member of both the Artgym and Association of Facilitators communities, you will have access to new learnings, industry news and discounts on further courses. Both also offer the potential for continued mentorship and development in your career, as well as access to global networks.
The cost includes the 10-month course of five modules and all tutorials.
