Æilus training is designed to teach how to work deliberately with value in complex systems — with a shared language, clear ownership, and repeatable operational loops.
The training program follows the structure of Æilus v2.0:
- VMT - the theoretical foundation (how value behaves),
- Æilus Methodology - principles, roles, processes, artifacts, domains, and practices (how to work with value),
- Æilus Design Practice - real cases, schemas, and operational application (how it looks in real systems).
Role-based learning paths (Æilus v2.0)
Training in Æilus is organized around roles. Roles are functional ownership models, not hierarchy titles. Each role requires a different set of skills and responsibilities.
Core roles
Value Transformer Owner (VTO)
For owners of value production inside a transformer. Focus: practice selection and adaptation, improving realized value under constraints, reducing anti-value and local resistance, and maintaining delivery capability over time.
Value System Owner (VSO)
For owners of system sustainability. Focus: system boundaries and configuration, participation conditions, external dependencies, system-level resistance, and balancing growth of planned value with stability.
Scaling roles
Flow Owner
For large systems or critical flows where value is frequently lost between transformers. Focus: interpretation alignment across boundaries, resistance reduction, throughput and accumulation control, and preventing undelivered value.
Practice Owner
For shared or critical practices used across multiple transformers. Focus: maintaining practice design, ensuring correct implementation/adaptation, preventing cargo-cult use, and managing practice lifecycle (validation, revision, decommissioning).
Domain Owner
For critical quality contexts that constrain value interpretation (e.g., performance, availability, security, continuity, architecture). Focus: domain policies, admissibility of practices, and preventing systemic anti-value caused by domain violations.
Support role
Æilus Master
For supporting correct adoption of Æilus. Focus: methodological integrity, preventing cargo-cult adoption, facilitating alignment and retrospective events, and maintaining coherence between VMT and practical application.
What the training covers
- Shared language: planned vs realized vs retrospective value, anti-value, resistance, participation conditions.
- System modeling: how to describe a value system (actors, flows, boundaries, dependencies).
- Operational loops: how to run observation, alignment, resistance reduction, and sustainability control over time.
- Artifacts and reporting: how to make value visible and decision-ready, not “metric-heavy”.
- Domains and policies: how to improve value without breaking constraints.
- Practices: how to select, adapt, validate, and retire practices through a portfolio approach.
Courses and certificates
Course enrollment and certification links will be published soon.
Planned components:
- Foundation course - VMT concepts and Æilus methodology overview.
- Role tracks - VTO / VSO / Flow Owner / Practice Owner / Domain Owner / Æilus Master.
- Applied labs - working with real value system schemas and reports.
- Certification - assessment of role competency and methodological integrity.
Until public enrollment is available, you can follow updates and community discussions here:
- Welcome section - the guided introduction to the ecosystem
- Telegram community
Æilus training is designed for teams and leaders who want to make value observable, comparable, and sustainable not just “improve metrics”.
