Training

Learn the Discovery Judgment Framework — at your own pace, or with your team.

Two programmes, one framework

Start with the free Introductory Programme. When you're ready for working depth, the Certification Programme builds practical mastery across the full framework.

Seven modules, one continuous example

Building from the problem through to the framework and your next step.

1
The Problem with Building
Why building faster hasn't improved outcomes
The build-vs-decide gap · The 80% problem · Decision failures vs execution failures
2
Why Discovery Fails
Three structural problems with existing frameworks
Designed for a slower world · No judgment layer · Not built for AI
3
The Three-Layer Architecture
Process, visible judgment, and optional AI partnership
Each layer explained · Why the human foundation comes first · How the layers compose
4
Stages, Gates, and the JTBD North Star
Five stages, four genuine decisions, the job that anchors everything
Stage walkthrough · Gate outcomes · The artifact chain · Why JTBD comes first
5
Judgment Points: Making Decisions Visible
The heart of the framework
What a Judgment Point is · The 19 JPs across five stages · The four quality dimensions
6
Gates in Practice: The Four-Dimension Model
Genuine decisions with documented confidence
Desirability, Usability, Feasibility, Viability · The weakest-link model · Three-perspective assessment · Worked example at Gate 4
7
What This Means for You
The human foundation, judgment that compounds, and where to go next
Framework applicability across contexts · AI partnership modes · Continuous discovery · Three concrete next steps

Three formats for teams and cohorts

All live sessions are facilitated by Gale Robins and tailored to your cohort's stage and context.

Single Session
Guest Speaker
A focused introduction to the Discovery Judgment Framework: what it is, why it matters, and how founders can apply it immediately. Ideal for programme kick-offs or demo day prep.
60–90 minutes · Remote or in-person
Half-day to Full-day
Cohort Workshop
Hands-on session built around your cohort's live discovery challenges. Teams leave with a mapped discovery process, visible judgment points, and clear next steps for their specific stage.
4–8 hours · Best for accelerator cohorts
Multi-session Series
Cohort Programme
A structured series across your programme's duration, covering all five discovery stages, all 19 Judgment Points, and the AI partnership model. Includes working sessions between sessions.
4–8 sessions over weeks or months

Live and self-paced work well together. Many accelerators pair a live kick-off workshop with self-paced enrolment for their founders — giving cohorts shared vocabulary and individual depth. Ask about cohort licences for the Certification Programme alongside live sessions.
