Redefine Project Management Education with Simulation Based Learning
Deliver confident, job-ready graduates through immersive,
simulation based training for project management
SimProject: Simulation-Based Learning for Project Management Fundamentals Training
With SimProject’s simulation based learning, students learn what managing a project is like as they make real decisions and get real feedback as they manage a simulated real-life project using real-life people within a real-life company
Who It’s For
SimProject is designed for:
- Professors and lecturers teaching project management, business, or operations management
- Department heads seeking to modernize their curriculum with hands-on simulations
- Universities and colleges aiming to increase enrollment and improve graduate job readiness
Benefits of Simulation Based Training with SimProject
End-to-End Project Lifecycle Simulation
Students learn to manage all phases of a project, from project charter to resource and stakeholder management.
Cloud-hosted and Easy to Use
Fully online platform with no technical expertise or IT support needed for installation or onboarding.
Simplified Grading for Educators
Simulation results are automatically scored. No need to review Word docs, PPTs, or spreadsheets.
Learn by Doing Methodology
With simulation based training, students gather hands-on project management experience leading to an increased success rate.
Project Management Fundamentals Training for Students
SimProject’s simulation based learning, places students in control of real-time project decisions in a simulated environment. They:
- Developing project plans using network diagram, Gantt chart, etc.
- Making strategic decisions around scope, resources, & timelines
- Managing variables like delays, productivity, & stakeholder demands
- Delivering projects successfully under shifting constraints & conflicts
This simulation based learning approach gives students the confidence and capabilities they need to manage real projects after graduation.
SimProject is your partner in delivering impactful project
management training without the overhead of traditional
teaching methods.

Testimonials
Educators across the globe are reimagining their classrooms with project management training online that actually works.
The results determined this simulation improved the learning of project management concepts and added value to the course for most of the students. By drilling down deeper into specific knowledge areas, it was possible to establish a positive relationship between simulation and learning outcomes for distance students, thus addressing the challenge project management instructors face in moving content into an on-line format.
April Reed, PhD, PMP, CSM
Associate Professor, College of Business - MIS Department East Carolina UniversityThe 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.
