Simtec is a new forum to facilitate the integration of generic simulation into learning
and development activities that support process operations. Simtec helps users of the Simtronics DSS Dynamic Simulator System connect with other users to share training
exercises, which are rated by degree of difficulty:
- Beginner – Easy exercises appropriate for vocational process technology students, industrial new hires, or those new to simulator use.
- Skill Builder – Simple exercises that teach and reinforce basic skills of board operation.
- Competent – Exercises intended to reinforce skills required of trained board operators.
- Advanced – Exercises of sufficient complexity to be challenging to experienced board operators. These exercises draw on skills not only of console operation, but also process leadership and crew management.
- Expert – Advanced exercises intended to challenge highly skilled, experienced practitioners and engineers. These exercises are appropriate for building team troubleshooting or abnormal situation management skills.
