The "Components" of simCEO: An Overview

The foundation of simCEO is provided as the participants complete specific components that are designed to further define the business plan and thinking of the student. These components, or "assignments", are loosely divided into four categories. (Clicking a link below will allow you to preview a MS Word version of a component.)

Instructors can also create their own customized assignments for particpants to complete.

The instructor can choose which of these components to use during the simulation. Participants will only see the components selected by the instructor.

Selecting a Business Foundation activities designed to provide brainstorming for possible companies

Defining a Business Components designed to provide short answers and data to communicate a business plan

Refinement of a Business Plan These are longer writing and creative assignments designed to provide an avenue for students to demonstrate their real-world skills in developing and producing quality components found in today's businesses

Additional Components (logos, commercials, advertisements - online, newspaper, magazine, or other, business cards, budgets, designs ofa product, homepages for a company website, company or product brochures, charts/graphs of demographics/sales/suppliers/etc.) can also be added and used for the simulation.

Evaluating Businesses These evaluations and assessments are utilized during the actual simulation instead of prior to it. They ask participants to assess, analyze, and make corrections and projections about various aspects of the simulation. (Assignments 12-15 are not completed online. They are supplementary assignments that do not affect the simulation itself.)

After a student has completed all the necessary preliminary assignments, the actual simulation can begin. However, there are some very interesting additional options that are available as well. Continue to the next page to find out more.
