Simulation Powered Learning

You probably don’t remember me, but I was in a class you taught many, many years ago in Pierre, South Dakota for the Department of Game, Fish and Parks. I can still vividly remember the lessons I learned from your project management computer simulation that we used. I have lost track of the number of times I have reminded myself, SD Game, Fish and Parks

and those around me (including my superiors), that the answer to a problem is not just to throw more people into the mix. In my current role managing a remote fish hatchery supervising a super-star team of people doing unprecedented great things, I rely on what I learned from you about teamwork, project management, and effective supervision.Mike Barnes, PhD

The simulation was engrossing and a great way to drive home the lessons – I learned a lot about teamwork from this experience.S.L. Ecolab

I think everyone who works on projects should have this experience.S.Q. Mayo Clinic

The Simulation was great! I learned a lot…most fun class I have ever taken!A.S. GMAC

The simulation learning process was a much better process then straight lecture. The sense of accomplishment is greater when what is being learned is instantly being applied.L.Q. ABC

The quality that SPL has been providing us is greatly appreciated; we see this reflected in the enthusiasm expressed by the participants in the Project Management Simulation. I see this as a strong foundation for our curriculum moving forward.P.J.F. 3M

I can honestly say that your training, in my opinion, has been one of the best we’ve had throughout the years for all the various topics on which we’ve been taught!KRMN BCA
