Quick Start Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Quick Start Certification cost?
The cost is $5,200.00 per Certified Facilitator, which includes two Quick Start coaching calls with an experienced Partners In Leadership Executive Facilitator, a scripted Facilitator Guide, access to video segments to assist in the certification training, a Facilitator Kit and a complete set of participant materials for 20 people.

What does a Facilitator Kit include?
Each facilitator receives:

• An Oz Principle Carry Bag
• A Facilitator Guide
• Workshop slide presentation (PowerPoint or Keynote)
• A set of Participant Materials
• 10 Solve It Balls (only for The Oz Principle Accountability
  Training)
• Ball Toss Target and Blindfold (only for The Oz Principle
  Accountability Training)

What is the format of the workshop slides?
Slides are available in both PowerPoint and Keynote Formats for both PC and Mac.

Does the agreement limit training to employees in the client organization?
Yes, the Quick Start agreement only authorizes Certified Facilitators to train employees of the client organization. However, Certified Facilitators who become aware of other organizations that are interested in participating in the training should contact their Partners In Leadership representative.

How long does it take to get certified?
It depends on the pace of an individual’s self-study of the Facilitator Guide and video segments. Generally, the first Quick Start call should occur within two to four weeks. The second Quick Start call will take place after completion of the first workshop. A Partners In Leadership Executive Facilitator issues certification in the second Quick Start call, which can be scheduled immediately following the first workshop.

What is involved in getting certified?
Candidates need to study the Facilitator Guide and slides to learn how to conduct the training. Video segments are available to assist them in learning how to facilitate the training. Everyone receives two calls from an Executive Facilitator, one before and one after the first workshop. These calls last about an hour and are intended to answer questions and provide additional coaching on how to successfully deliver the training.

How does a Certified Facilitator order Participant Materials?
After certification, Partners In Leadership sends out an electronic order form. Facilitators can fax or email the order form or call and speak with their Partners In Leadership contact. Certified Facilitators are authorized to order additional Participant Materials (a Participant Licensing Fee or “PLF”) for their first class after their first Quick Start call with an Executive Facilitator.

What is a Participant Licensing Fee (PLF)?
A Participant Licensing Fee refers to the per-person training fee. A PLF is purchased from Partners In Leadership for every person who is trained by a Certified Internal Facilitator. The PLF includes the right for the participant to be trained in The Oz Principle Accountability Training curriculum and includes a complete set of participant materials for one person.

What happens if a facilitator leaves the client company?
Partners In Leadership will provide a free Quick Start Certification for a new facilitator(s) to replace those who leave an organization. Please contact Partners In Leadership to replace any material (priced by item) missing from a facilitator kit.

Do Certified Facilitators remain certified after they leave a client organization?
A Certified Facilitator does not need to be re-certified, but will need to be authorized to facilitate for their new organization by entering a new Quick Start Agreement and paying the Quick Start Certification fee for that organization. A Facilitator Kit will be provided as a part of the fee.
