Simulation Master Classes

Learn from the Masters of the simulation industry and gain insight into key analysis styles, productivity enhancement, and proven modeling techniques. Get a massive dose of inspiration, motivation, and education while sharing the experience with peers from around the world.

Master Classes provide a unique bridge between simulation theory and real-world practice. A hand-picked team of simulation experts from a range of backgrounds join the Imagine That Inc. technical staff to discuss their simulation techniques, general research, and the specific ExtendSim features they find intriguing.

Master crucial simulation concepts with these free one-hour webinars focusing on a different simulation concept or theory each month.

	Getting to the Right Decision	Thursday, March 8, 2012 10 to 11 am PDT (GMT-7)	Scott J. Bury Principal Research Scientist - Engineering and Process Sciences The Dow Chemical Company
	Clients have problems. Clients really don't care about your simulation. They care about value. Value follows from making the right decision and the right time to solve their problem. Making the right decision requires the right data. Getting the right data requires more than just having the right modeling and simulation tools and skills. This Master Class will present a framework for Modeling and Simulation projects that will set you up for success as a Problem-Solver and repeat business from your clients. It will show you the benefits of Front-End Contracting, good project management and even when you shouldn't simulate.
