Access and practice working with the HRManagement simulation via the Interpretive Simulation - HR Management button in the Course Menu.When initially accessing the simulation, you will be prompted to set up a user name. Before setting up that user name, first identify the five-star hotel that will serve as your company throughout your completion of the simulation activities (see instructions for selection below). The hotel will become part of the naming convention used to set up your user name in the HR simulation program.Once you have selected a five-star hotel, use the following naming convention: student name (first initial, second initial, last name—no spaces). Name of Five-Star Hotel. An example would be as follows: DLPhilpott_Ritz-Carlton NYImportant Note: Complete at least one full practice quarter by the end of Workshop One. However, you are encouraged to complete an additional 2-3 practice quarters before the start of Workshop Two in order to facilitate your simulation analysis activities and decision making. On the first day of Workshop Two, all practices will be wiped away and the simulation will be set to “restart” for official start of the software activities, beginning with the first two quarters of the actual first year for the selected organization.WS1 Simulation Quiz. Complete the 10-question quiz to assess your understanding of the introductory case study information. Access the WS1 Simulation Quiz from within the HRManagement simulation.The quiz is based on the required simulation case reading for Workshop One.It will consist of 10 questions worth 1 point each.The questions will be comprised of true/false and multiple choice.This quiz will only be open for access during this Workshop One.This quiz must be completed individually.You may use the HRM Simulation student guide as a resource for taking the quiz.Only one quiz attempt is available.Goals and Strategies.
