Digitability's 2023 Work Simulation Competition

Set Students up for Success with Workplace Routines

In Phase 1 of the Level 1 Work Simulation, students are introduced to many of the concepts they will need in order to be successful in the workplace- skills they will learn during Digitability's Work Simulation project. Collaboration, compensation, and company meetings make up the bulk of the phase one instruction.

Things to Consider

Work simulations are designed to assist students in improving their workplace skills- including communication, collaboration, time and task management, and problem solving. 

In order for students to be able to dive into the work simulation project, it is imperative to spend some time at the onset of the project going over the workplace routines they will need to know. Once routines have been established, students will be able to focus on the content of the project. Watch the video below to learn more about workplace routines during phase one of the Work Simulation project.
