How to use our social simulations?
Our social simulations and serious games are highly appreciated among experts, trainers, and players worldwide.
Workshops with this innovative tools can be adapted and applied to different contexts, including organizational change, experiments, education, and capacity building.
Many of our social simulations are available for free for non-commercial purposes. We also grant licenses for commercial use and offer courses to help you gain experience in using our simulations.
Games and simulations created by the Centre for System Solutions embrace both interactive online tools and full-sized board games perfect for face-to-face workshops. Each simulation is tailored to the specific needs of our clients and thus displays varying degrees of complexity. An inherent element of each simulation-based workshop is debriefing, a custom-fit, extensive discussion conducted by a professional trainer just after the game. Each participant of the course will learn not only how to moderate (that is, prepare and conduct) a given simulation. The course will equip you also with facilitation skills – you will acquire know-how to professionally lead a debriefing session on sustainable development and to encourage players to use knowledge and experience gained while playing.
That’s why we offer different types of learning opportunities. Each time we optimize the course’s content, form and price.
