The project simulation SimulTrain® is primarily used in combination with classroom activities.
In teams of 3 to 4 people, learners play the role of the project manager. The teams have to plan and execute a typical mid-size project where they immediately see the consequences of the decisions they make. They can track the evolution of the costs, schedule, quality as well as the human elements like motivation.
In SimulTrain® a project manager can make all the mistakes while planning and executing a project and learn from these mistakes – it is a safe and learning-suitable environment!
Through live interactions, SimulTrain® engages the teams by phone calls, emails, and voicemails to create a realistic and … stressful environment – just as in the real life. Therefore, learners experience stress and working under pressure which are the rule in pretty much all projects today.
SimulTrain® is also an amazing tool for team building and creating relationships between team members.
