A Discovery Session turns a raw change request into a recorded Initiative, without assuming that the first proposed solution is the right one. This course teaches you how to run that session as a Facilitator, from opening the Initiative at modeller.websiteExternal ↗ to finalizing it or handing it to System Design.
This is an independent course about Modeller — it is not part of the Modeller product itself. Every step below links to the live site or docs you will actually use.

Key Takeaway
A Discovery Session records the reasoning from a change request to a chosen response — it does not skip straight to building what was first asked for.
