A Consistent Design and Deployment Methodology for All Levels of Expertise

• Roleplaying games offer context for career and professional development

• A roleplaying game system allows players of all ages and levels of experience to learn using the same methodology

• Youth play "professional" roles, learning 21st century skills and building critical career knowledge

• Professionals are placed in contexts where they must work as teams solving problems; not just as individuals learning software features

• The use of professional modeling and simulation tools are central to play

• M&S tools, real world data sets and 3D elements are the roleplaying “props” that support the story line and character development

• All industry verticals and scientific disciplines can be served
