The Transformation Economy Expert Certification Course equips professionals to apply the principles, frameworks, tools, and methods introduced by B. Joseph Pine II in The Transformation Economy: Guiding Customers to Achieve Their Aspirations.

Participants learn directly from Joe Pine how to identify opportunities for transformation, design offerings around customer aspirations, and help organizations create greater economic value by using experiences as the basis for transformations.

This is not simply a course about the Transformation Economy. It is an intensive certification program designed to prepare you to put its principles into practice — within your organization, with your clients, or through your own professional work.

Earn your Certified Transformation Economy Expert (CTEE) designation and begin guiding the change your customers seek.

25%

THE TRANSFORMATION GUARANTEE

Unlike most executive education programs, a portion of your tuition is tied directly to the value you believe you receive.

Our Transformation Guarantee states that if after fully participating you do not believe the experience meaningfully expanded your ability to think about, design, and guide transformational offerings, you may determine what portion of the final 25% of fees is appropriate to pay – all, some, or none.

It is our commitment to create a course worthy of its subject—one that changes how you see your customers, your organization, and the opportunity ahead.
