Apollo 13 -
IT Service Management Simulation
- Case Experience™
One-day Session You Will Never Forget!
Learn and experience the
benefits of best practice processes and solutions during
the Apollo 13 Simulation; a real time experience.
The Apollo Game shows the
necessity to work with processes, procedures, clear
roles and enforces continuous improvement with the
concerned team.
Course overview:
The Apollo 13 one day
course is based upon participation in a simulation
workshop. During the workshop, students will see, feel,
and experience the benefits of structured processes
(e.g. by applying ITIL® best practice) on organisational
performance.
The participants will
have to work together as a team (role: mission control
centre in Houston) to make decisions, agr ee and apply
their own working practices in order to save the Apollo
13 astronauts. The simulation consists of four rounds.
Before each round, the team will have the chance to
design their procedures and allocate roles. Following
each simulation round, the team, under the guidance of
the trainer, will reflect upon learning experiences and
identify and prioritize improvements required before the
next round. In between ea round, the team will produce
balanced scorecard reports to show how well they have
achieved their goals and will specify how their
improvements for the next round will impact the agreed
goals.
