Frequently Asked Questions about OPENDSR & Courses
Got questions about OPENDSR or our certification programs? We’ve gathered the most common queries to help you understand the framework, the courses, and the membership benefits that come with every enrollment.
OPENDSR (Open Platform for Empathy-led Navigation, Design Standards, and Real-Time Intelligence) is a practical framework for building employee experiences that are human-centered, consistent, and actionable. Unlike traditional EX models that rely heavily on surveys or isolated programs, OPENDSR provides a 7-step operating cycle that organizations can repeat continuously. It’s designed to work with tools you already use (Slack, Teams, HRIS) and comes alive through structured rhythms, not one-off initiatives.
We currently offer three structured certifications: ODSX – OPENDSR Certified EX Strategist (for HR professionals). ODXO – OPENDSR Certified EX Operations Leader (for managers). ODTL – OPENDSR Certified EX Transformation Executive (for senior leaders). Each course combines theory with real-world case studies, tools, and templates. Learners gain not just knowledge but practical skills to embed OPENDSR into their organization.
Yes. Every course enrollment includes membership to the OPENDSR Community. Membership provides: Access to a library of EX tools, templates, and resources. Invitations to quarterly live webinars and case-sharing sessions. Peer networking with certified professionals across industries. Continuous updates as the OPENDSR framework evolves. This ensures learning doesn’t stop when the course ends—you stay connected and supported.
OPENDSR courses are designed for HR leaders, managers, and executives who want to improve employee experience in practical, measurable ways. After certification, you’ll be able to: Apply the 7-step OPENDSR cycle inside your organization. Use empathy-led tools to close feedback loops in real time. Build equity and inclusion into daily workflows. Lead EX projects with confidence and measurable impact. As a certified member, you also join a growing global network of practitioners driving the future of human-centered workplaces.
