Evaluation and Full AccessInformation on how you might evaluate a business simulation and then describes how you can enable the full version of the simulation for use on your courses. |
Download and Review Briefing Slides |
This provides a short overview of the business simulation and will be helpful when refining your search for a suitable simulation. |
Download and Review Participant's Manual |
This enables you to investigate the business simulation from the learners' viewpoint and should help you refine your selection further. |
Request and Review Background Notes |
These provide detailed information about the business simulation model and the learning that it provides to allow you to ensure the simulation meets your learning needs and integrates with other learning. But you will need to email for a copy of these. |
Download the Simulation |
The simulation that you download is the full version. Except that you will only be allowed to simulate a couple of periods rather than the number required to deliver learning. For help with the download process. |
Decide to go Ahead |
Email us with the dates when you will be using the business simulation and we will email you back a code that releases the full version for your course. |
Release Full Version |
You enter the code into the business simulation and it will switch to the full version for the duration of your course. (After this it will revert to the evaluation version.) |
Use on Course |
You can now use the business simulation on your course. Whenever possible we will try to be available for you to phone us during this time if necessary. |
We Invoice you |
After successful use we will invoice you. Only once has this been a problem where an American University did not pay. |

When you are ready to enter the code you should click on the Yes button and when you do this you will be asked:

And you should type in the code provided to you and click confirm. When typing in the code be very careful not to confuse the letter O and the number zero (0) and the letter I and the number one (1). After confirmation you will be asked:

Double check the code and if correct click Yes. If you made a typing error click No and re-enter. The you will told whether the release has been successful:
Or not:

(If you get the Invalid Code message the business simulation will remain in the evaluation mode and this may be because you typed in the wrong code (perhaps confusing O and 0 or I and 1) or because you entered the code too early or too late (this is because for security reasons, the release code can only be entered in a defined time window.)
You can also release the full version of the simulation from the Special Options (Tutor Mediated Simulations) or Tutor's Options (Direct Use Simulations or Negotiation Simulations).
