FAQ

Common questions

Answers to common questions about how the labs run, who they're for, how long they take, and what to expect.

Who are the labs for?

Beyond Certain works with young people, schools, community organisations and workplace teams. The right lab depends on what you're trying to achieve and who will be in the room.

What age groups do you work with?

Labs can be designed for different age groups and contexts. Tell us who you're working with and we'll help you work out what fits.

How many people can participate?

Labs are intentionally kept small enough for people to participate rather than simply observe. The ideal number depends on the experience.

How long does a lab take?

Labs are generally designed as 2–3 hour facilitated experiences rather than full-day training programs.

Can you bring a lab to our organisation?

Yes. Labs can be delivered for community organisations, workplaces and other groups.

Do you run public sessions?

Some experiences are available through public sessions. If you'd like to experience one yourself, ask us what's coming up.

Is this a training program?

Not in the traditional sense. There may be learning involved, but the starting point isn't a curriculum or a set of information people need to absorb. The experience comes first.

Do participants receive a certificate?

No. The value isn't in completing a course or collecting a certificate. It's in what participants notice and what they choose to do with it afterwards.

What happens after the first lab?

That depends on what you need. Some people start with a single experience. Others use a series of labs to revisit and build on what emerges.

How is this different from a workshop?

A traditional workshop often starts with what people need to know. A Beyond Certain lab starts with an experience. The difference is what becomes visible when people have to make decisions rather than simply talk about them.
