Pilot Session

Test the approach in a real session before scaling the program.

A tailored Pilot Session allows your team to experience our case-based approach firsthand. It also enables us to align the content, level, case selection, and delivery model more precisely with your organization before the main program.

More than a presentation

See how the program works — not merely how it is described.

A Pilot Session brings the selected program approach to life through tailored cases, discussion, and application with a real group. Participants do not simply listen; they analyze, debate, decide, and reflect on the consequences.

The purpose is not only to evaluate the facilitator or the content. The session generates concrete feedback on participant level, organizational language, case relevance, depth of discussion, and the overall delivery model.

A pilot is not a compressed version of the full curriculum. It is a representative module designed to assess the learning experience and organizational fit.

Answer three critical questions before committing to the main program.

01

Experience the approach

See how the case method, facilitator interaction, and active-participation model work with your team in a real session.

02

Align the program

Refine the content, examples, level of challenge, and delivery model around your priorities and participant profile.

03

Make a better-informed investment decision

Evaluate a broader program through direct experience and concrete feedback — not only through a proposal or presentation.

How it works

From direct experience to full alignment in four steps.

  1. 01

    Define the need

    We clarify the purpose of the program, intended participants, content to be evaluated, and success criteria in a focused briefing.

    Outcome: a clear pilot evaluation framework

  2. 02

    Design the pilot

    We select and tailor a representative module from the relevant program area around your organizational context and evaluation objectives.

    Outcome: a tailored pilot-session design

  3. 03

    Run the session

    The pilot is delivered as a real learning experience using cases, discussion, and application. Scope and duration are agreed according to the need.

    Outcome: a directly observed learning experience

  4. 04

    Debrief and align

    After the session, we evaluate the content, level, examples, and delivery model, and translate the findings into clear recommendations for the main program.

    Outcome: an aligned main-program design

Who can take part?

The participant group is shaped around the purpose of the evaluation. A Pilot Session may include HR and learning-and-development teams, program sponsors, relevant business leaders, or representatives of the intended participant group.

In some cases, the pilot is delivered primarily to the HR or learning team evaluating the program. In others, managers from the intended audience take part. We agree the most useful participant mix during the initial briefing.

Pilot fee

Your pilot fee becomes part of your investment in the main program.

A Pilot Session is a paid professional engagement that includes research, tailored content adaptation, preparation, and delivery. The fee is determined by the scope, duration, preparation requirements, and participant structure.

If we proceed together with the main program, the full Pilot Session fee is credited against the total program budget.

100% of the pilot fee is credited against the main program when we proceed together.

How long is a Pilot Session?

The duration depends on the program and the aspects you want to evaluate. The session is designed to provide a representative experience of the learning approach and organizational fit.

Who should attend?

HR and learning-and-development teams, program sponsors, relevant business leaders, or representatives of the intended participant group may attend. We agree the participant mix according to the purpose of the pilot.

Is the Pilot Session paid?

Yes. It is a professional engagement involving research, tailored preparation, and delivery. A dedicated pilot fee is determined according to its scope and duration.

What happens to the fee if we proceed?

If your organization proceeds with Stratify for the main program, the full Pilot Session fee is credited against the total program budget.

What happens after the session?

We conduct a focused debrief with the program-owning team. Feedback on content, level, case selection, delivery, and participant profile is incorporated into the design of the main program.
