This capstone course is a one of a kind learning experience applying key project leadership principles and practice with an interactive project simulation tool, “SimulTrain®". "SimulTrain® is a registered trade mark of STS".

The Project Leadership training is "facilitator-led and reality-based" using a real life project scenario in a simulated environment! Participants work in teams through a "real" project, including all events and influences which occur in all projects -clients changing requirements, staff skill sets, team issues, personality concerns, resource constraints, technical decisions and difficulties. Participants must make decisions under stress as a team, considering all parameters of a project.

The simulator is a practical application of project leadership and management techniques and tools which allow participants to understand consequences of actions and decisions within a complex system of a project focusing on the human ones!
