Public Courses & Workshops
Through our partnership with the Stanford Center for Professional Development and our own curriculum honed over 30 years, SDG offers public courses and workshops designed to build individual capabilities in decision analysis and in SDG's decision-making methodology, the Dialogue Decision Process. These courses have benefited thousands of executives, managers, and analysts, and have provided the foundation for internal decision support centers.
"You and your team did a fantastic job in the two weeks I spent with SDG. Although it was a lot of work, I truly enjoyed how you were able to mix intellectually challenging material with fun, thereby creating a wonderful learning environment."

We offer a variety of education programs: 2½-day courses presented through the Stanford Strategic Decision and Risk Management certificate program; public courses conducted around the world; and 2-week, in-depth classes on decision analysis and decision consulting. The 2-week course, in particular, is prized by our clients for quickly bringing up to speed new members of internal decision support organizations when on-site training is not practical.
