FAQs
Some of the most common questions about our workshops.
Do I need any prior knowledge before attending these workshops?
The Certificate is designed for those both new to innovation and those with some background in it. The five workshops take participants on an innovation journey – from understanding and applying a variety of innovation methodologies right through to building and testing a prototype of an idea. However, those with little or no knowledge or experience will be able to step into any workshop and engage with the topic.
What if I can only attend one workshop?
All five workshops are required to receive the Certificate.
Can I join remotely?
At this stage, all workshops are held in Wellington, at Creative HQ. If you’d like us to run these workshops for your organisation, get in touch.
