History
The first version of SimulTrain was released in 1996. This educational software has been constantly improved. In October 2012 the 9th version of SimulTrain was released.
The project management simulation SimulTrain is based on Dr. Roland Sauter‘s PhD thesis La modélisation des facteurs humains dans la gestion de projets. (1996). A model of human factors in project management was validated by a survey of 900 project managers. In 1996 the simulator was developed based on this model.
The first version ran on Macintosh. Since then a new version with numerous new features was released regularly every two years. Version 9 released in October 2012 runs on various operating systems (Windows, Macintosh, Linux) and is available both as online version and desktop version.
By 2012 over 100,000 people across 50 countries, have been trained with SimulTrain. The simulation has been translated into 21 languages.
