Within the SimScholars LMS, learners can input a Pass/Fail result in the SimU Campus™ score section. Criteria for a “pass” can be adjusted/determined by each organization’s instructor.

What is included in SimScholars Curriculum?
Each curriculum is a unique, one-to-one match to a corresponding simulated machine, such as an excavator, dozer, etc. The contents contain learning objectives, learner guide, videos, lessons, how-to steps and graphics, quizzes for each lesson, and a pre- and post-test. An instructor guide is also available, along with training by our curriculum specialist. Materials comprise operating techniques, environment/worksite or other tangential information associated with machine operation.
Learners who use curriculum materials along with simulator training are better prepared for on-the-iron training.
