Project management simulation for training is an interactive learning activity, frequently practiced as a group exercise.
The purpose of the simulation is to impart to students the competencies (i.e. knowledge, skills, and attitudes) that will ultimately improve their performance.
They can track the evolution of the project parameters: scope, costs, schedule, and quality, as well as human factors.
The simulation provides an opportunity for learners to solve typical project problems, to make mistakes and analyze them.
A simulation is then run to check the different possible outcomes and their probability as a result of different inputs for the uncertain variables.
