How does BizSim work?

BizSim is a learning environment that integrates business data, structural modeling, and work-oriented tasks.

Its core is not gamification, but authentic practice in operations and decision-making – just like in real working life.


🧩 Business modeling

BizSim is built around case companies whose operations are described as logical, interconnected systems: business idea, strategy, processes, systems, roles, and data. These elements form the basis for simulated work situations and business data that serve as the foundation for learning.

Each case provides a realistic learning context aligned with the company’s operational logic – whether it’s about inventory turnover, cash flow, customer encounters, or service management.


📊 Utilizing data

BizSim is not a game to be played – it is a framework that produces work-life scenarios and business data, enabling learners to:

  • Practice workplace routines (such as bookkeeping or contract handling)
  • Create analyses and reports using real tools (e.g., Excel, Power BI)
  • Make decisions based on data and role logic

Data is provided in formats tailored to the learning focus:
– Accounting materials, bank statements, and invoices for financial training
– Transaction data and registers for analytics and reporting exercises
– Contract details and task lists for customer and service process training


🎓 Learning through scenarios

Learning takes place through workplace scenarios. The learner assumes a specific role (e.g., bookkeeper, account manager, project lead) and operates within the daily context of a case company. Each scenario guides practical engagement – reading data, using systems, reporting, and making decisions.

Learning is supported by:

  • A structurally described company overview
  • A pedagogically designed workbook that guides step by step
  • A clear task and relevant material processed with real-world tools

🔍 What makes BizSim unique?

BizSim doesn’t offer a pre-packaged game environment, but a working platform where the learner acts, interprets, decides, and understands. It brings together business structure, data, practical tools, and reasoning in a way that mirrors real working life – not the classroom.
