Module content
3-Day Intensive Course for Analysts, Engineers & Business Planners
3 Intense Days
7 Hours per Day (Split into two 3.5-hour sessions)
From raw data to dynamic system simulation:
Day 1: Foundations of Simulation Modeling & AnyLogic Environment
Learn the basics of system dynamics, discrete event, and agent-based modeling. Get hands-on with the AnyLogic interface, navigation, project setup, and importing real-world data into models.
Day 2: Building Dynamic Models and Integrating Analytics
Design models for logistics, manufacturing, supply chain, or service systems. Use input data (CSV, Excel, APIs) to drive simulation and generate performance metrics. Learn to structure models for experimentation.
Day 3: Scenario Testing, Optimization & Business Decision Support
Simulate what-if scenarios, run Monte Carlo experiments, and optimize system behavior using AnyLogic tools. Learn how to use dashboards, graphs, and output reports to communicate insights for business decisions.
This course equips you with the essential skills to build, run, and analyze simulations using AnyLogic, a powerful tool for modeling complex business systems. Whether you’re in logistics, manufacturing, healthcare, or operations, you’ll learn how to use simulation and analytics to make better, evidence-based decisions.
