Instructor
Our goal is to create a world where projects have a high success rate. We do this by providing advanced project management tools and training.
Simulation allows students to learn project management by actually doing rather than by just listening. Making good decisions requires experience. By practicing in a safe, controlled environment, students and trainees gain hands-on project management experience.
The PTB™ simulator allows for managing real world case studies. Users make decisions and see how they affect project outcome by advancing the simulation time.
Integrating theory with an interactive, practical, game-like computer simulation leads to lasting benefits. It's a fun, engaging and energetic way to improve learning.
