Facilitator Requirements

Ice House does not require the instructor to be a subject matter expert in the field of entrepreneurship but instead, a facilitator of the entrepreneurial learning process. To ensure the quality of the learner experience and a core understanding of the Ice House philosophy, one must attend the Entrepreneurial Mindset Facilitator Certification in order to facilitate the program to others.
