Academies & Certifications approach

What Ascent's Academies & Certifications actually changes.

Who it's for: two audiences in parallel. (1) Corporate clients running a deep, named cohort — team upskilling and high-potential leader tracks where the company wants to develop emerging leaders before they step up. (2) Individual learners who buy in on their own (often using an employer upskilling budget), can stop at any tier, and resume later when they're ready. How it differs from the program pillars: the program pillars are workshops; academies are multi-week cohort-based curriculums with assessed certification at the end. Every academy is delivered across Foundations, Core and Pro tiers, and includes the Ascent Online Learning Platform, downloadable tools and 8-week post-training reinforcement.

  • Three deliberate academy tiers — Foundations, Core, Pro
  • Built for two audiences: corporate cohorts (team upskilling, hi-po tracks) and individuals (self-paced, eligible for employer upskilling budgets)
  • In-person workshops, virtual sessions, micro-learnings, on-demand
  • Certificate of Completion and a complimentary Tim Carlisle book
  • Reinforcement engineered to make behaviour actually stick

Frequently asked questions

Good to know
Most programs run as a one- to three-day workshop, followed by the 8-week reinforcement series and ongoing Ascent Online Learning Platform access. Academy formats run as 8–10 week cohorts.
Both. Every program in this pillar is built to be delivered in-person, live virtual, on-demand on the Ascent Online Learning Platform, or as 60–90 minute micro-learnings — most engagements blend several.
Most corporate engagements run all three academy tiers in parallel — emerging professionals on Foundations, midlevel talent on Core, senior leaders on Pro — using shared language so the team operates with one playbook. Individual learners can begin on Foundations and stop, restart or extend at Core or Pro on their own timeline.
Yes. Every engagement opens with a discovery call so the case studies, role-plays and language match your actual market and buyer — never a generic deck.
