## 3.1 Project Management Simulation
Product details are at 
<a href="https://GoVenture.net/pm" target="_blank">GoVenture.net/pm</a>

Students can play the Simulation once an instructor gives them a Group number to join.  Instructors can use the _Play As Student_ feature to play as a student — but you must first create a _Group_ to play.

<i>**Accessibility for People With Disabilities**<br>
The Simulation includes two interface options — the Default graphical interface and an Assistive interface that works with screen readers, keyboard input, and smartphones. Students choose the interface when starting a new simulation and must continue with the selected interface for the duration of that simulation.</i>
