Course Description:

'' This simulation provides a unique interactive service management simulation designed to engage service managers and reinforce best-practice in an exciting environment.

In the high-energy, stimulating event, service managers take on a variety of roles within an organisation to face a combination of real-world technology issues. By improving best practice and encouraging effective communication, delegates learn to align IT with the needs of the business, establish a common language and track revenue changes based on their decisions.

Fun, motivating and highly interactive days / half-days with real ‘wow-factor�
Standalone refresher days or sessions integrated into other events and courses
An extension to QA-IQ’s other service management courses providing effective and memorable learning
Team building experience �breaking down the isolated working practices of individual service managers to develop a strong project management community

The knowledge gained stays with participants as they drive and lead the activities their organisation needs to successfully implement ITSM as a best practice, quickly, and without reliance on high cost implementations. The underlying theme of fun and learning reinforces the key best practice concepts, in a way that not only is memorable, but also that leads to an understanding of, and buy-in to, the whole idea and purpose of IT Service Management.

Each transaction requires a number of key business applications, and is heavily reliant on the underlying IT infrastructure. The objective of the simulation is to process business transactions within a fixed period of time (25 minutes per round), generating revenue for the operating company. A payment is received for each transaction, either on-line or in-store, that is processed on time. If a transaction is late, then no payment is received. Successful transactions rely heavily on a fully operational IT infrastructure.
