The resource helps develop personal learning and thinking skills, provides a platform for students to demonstrate their Maths and English skills and knowledge, and delivers an authentic work-related learning experience.
When used in conjunction with the simulations, our skills and knowledge measurement and diagnostic tool gives tangible outcomes that your students can use to improve aspects of their course knowledge and skills set.

We used Trading Floor for an enterprise day which involved all years on a carousel basis. The students absolutely loved it - the competition between groups was immense! The high quality resources gives the game a professional look and makes the students think it is far more realistic. It gives students a valuable application of Maths in the real world.
