Using simulators in classroom and in self-paced online training.

Good day to all! For some years now we have been using simulators in classroom training of forecasters, with a lot of success. Based on courses' evaluations, these exercises are among the most favorable in the courses. However, simulators are available also online for self-paced training (e.g. at https://www.eumetrain.org/simulators), but there is less evidence of use or users' experience feedback. 

What is your experience? Do you use simulators and how? Any opinion as to what would be the optimal way to use the simulators in training?

Good day also to all ! We would love to hear about your experiences. Remember that today Monday 22 UTC we will run a workshop on simulators. You can find the joining link from the List of Live Sessions.

Everyone is welcome - you will need no prior knowledge about Simulators. You can either simply follow the workshop and the examples, or you can join some simple simulator building to get a feeling of how it works.
