Opinto-opas

Tavoitteet

The course uses an online simulation to assist learning. The OnService simulation business case is built around a small family hotel, with about 1m€ in annual sales at the start of the simulation. The students’ goal is to manage the overall operating, market, and financial performance of a service business in competitive markets with seasonal variations in demand and economic conditions. Human resources management, capacity management, investments, service quality, pricing, and marketing are the key decision-making areas in the simulation. The main aim of the course is to provide with students' practical knowledge of how to run a SME.
