StartMy Platform.
We started preparing for an online world several years ago by defining a central online hub called StartMy.Training© Platform. We designed a flexible and modular platform that serves as an access point for students, trainers/coaches, and corporations. The StartMy.Training© Platform is the central location for the network of students, organizations and professionals and all our simulation games, assessment tools, communication and learning content.
The StartMy.Training© Platform v3.0 is ready to go! The proprietary Service Oriented Architecture software is a fully flexible platform for the delivery of all StartMy services: investment games, recruitment challenges, eLearning Programmes, and training consultancy services.
It also serves as a platform for trainers, training companies, schools, and universities with easy uploadfacilities for learning content, (video) communication and an easy drag and drop interface for the creationof new learning programmes.
Once content is ready, a basic learning programme can be created and activated within a matter of minutes. If needed, a white label Portal (clone) can run on a mid-sized server structure and be up and running on the “same business day” on a dedicated client server (if so required by local data and security regulations).
From the beginning we outsourced server hosting to Amazon Web Services, one of the leading global cloud computing platforms. This means that we are scalable and can offer state-of-the-artstable,secureandfastglobalaccesstoStartMy.Training©Platformandthe Simulations and AssessmentTools.
Simulation Games.
We currently offer a portfolio of 8 financial simulation games. All are simulations are configured by us at the start of a session for easy use but with full control for the trainer and or participants. For instance, start-pause-stop, suspend playing in class, start calculating debriefing or change/manipulate scenario. Simulation classes can be truly global: trainer in London, participants in Amsterdam, Johannesburg and New York. Using the control panel, atrainer can run a truly global classroom. Our software is secure, cutting edge and always ready to go.
Training firms, business schools and (global investment) banks include our simulations into their training programmes for various reasons:
Apply classroom learning in both normal and economic stress scenarios
Instant learning feedback: quizzes and tests to measure learning progress
Direct implementation of new skills.
Detailed debriefing helps understanding what happened and what is needed
It is fun, entertaining and the fastest way oflearning
Our 15 years of experience in how to improve a learning session with simulations helps us guide our clients and trainers in creating high quality learning sessions. Via the StartMy.Training© Platform we can add additional support services: FAQ's, how-to-video's, manuals, examples, eLearning. Participants can play with only Portal Support if needed.
