Board simulations are a unique and highly effective problem-solving approach to learning: they place participants in realistic, problem-based scenarios. The most effective board simulations are customized to the client and industry. BTS, the world leader, has developed more than 200 customized board simulation programs for clients on four continents. We also offer a broad suite of industry specific simulations that may be adapted to specific client applications. The following is an example of our Banking Industry Board Simulation.
Sample Board Simulation: Banking Industry
Whether working in bank or serving a bank as a major client, participants in this board simulation build an understanding of industry-specific and organization-specific business challenges.
The Basics of the Banking Industry in a One-Day Experiential Learning Program
Factoid: BTS offers hybrid board-computer simulations that create a dynamic competitive marketplace.
The BTS Banking Business Simulation, a one-day experiential learning program, introduces the basic issues for the Banking Industry, including Retail and Corporate Banking. The Banking Business Simulation employs a unique problem-solving approach to learning that places participants in realistic, problem-based scenarios. By reasoning through these situations, participants learn and adopt the behaviors that will enable them to run their banking businesses more successfully. After each year of the three-year simulation, competing teams receive feedback and analysis on their performance in running a bank. By combining group discussions and exercises with the simulation, BTS empowers participants to immediately apply their new skills back on the job.
This board simulation can be used as a stand-alone program or as a module in a more extensive and comprehensive experiential learning program.
