TFSX offers professional development programs that equip participants for certification in Natural Foresight® – a practical and proven approach to applying Strategic Foresight in organizational and personal contexts.
Professional Certification in Natural Foresight is endorsed by the Global Foresight Advisory Council (GFAC), an international group of visionaries that are redefining their industries and intrinsically guided by an innate futurist mindset.
Certified Foresight Practitioners (CFPs) are equipped with the foundational ideas and tools of the Natural Foresight® Framework, embodying the futurist mindset and understanding the value of futures intelligence in their respective field. CFPs are able to conduct trendspotting, horizon scanning and pattern-making that informs future scenarios and impacts business results.
Certified Foresight Influencers (CFIs) have extensive knowledge of the tools and methods within Natural Foresight®, including advanced concepts. CFIs will have published works or otherwise established themselves as a thought leader in the use of foresight in their respective profession. Influencers are able to generate tangible organizational support and transformation through the implementation of robust futures work.
Certified Foresight Trainers (CFTs) must show mastery of the cadence, structure and terminology that is needed to effectively communicate Natural Foresight® principles.

A certificate of completion indicates that an individual gained knowledge by finishing a course or a series of courses. Learning events offered by TFSX (i.e. Foundations in Natural Foresight® (previously Applied Foresight Accelerator) and Activations in Natural Foresight® (previously Applied Foresight Activator) provide a certificate of completion.
However, certification is a more rigorous and valuable achievement where individuals apply for and receive a credential. To earn such a designation, there are education and experience requirements alongside successfully passing an assessment. Certification also requires a practitioner that earns the credential to recertify, ensuring continuous learning and development in the field.
Professional Foresight Certification includes a certification pathway with multiple levels. All levels adhere to a common Body of Competency and Knowledge and require an application, eligibility review, assessment, and recertification.
