Project Management Simulation
For SLP 3, the assignment is to play a simulation entitled Project Management Simulation: Scope, Resources,
and Schedule.
The simulation is an abbreviated demonstration of Harvard University, and it runs for three weeks or three
cycles; however, you can play it many times as long as you login after three cycles. The simulation has three
main tasks under tabs: prepare, analyze, and decide. It is recommended to view the introductory video and
navigate project objectives and how to play before attempting the assignment.
Use the word “user” as the login ID and password.
