Attribution (BY)
You must give clear and prominent credit: name the original author (Ammon Salter, Warwick Business School, University of Warwick), include the suggested citation, state the licence, and indicate any changes made. Credit must appear in the work itself — for example on an about screen, a title slide, or a course handbook. You may not imply institutional endorsement without separate written permission.
NonCommercial (NC) — Educational Use
Permitted — Educational use: You may freely use this simulation in any educational context where the primary purpose is teaching and learning. This includes but is not limited to:
- Undergraduate, postgraduate, MBA, EMBA, and doctoral programmes, even where students pay tuition fees
- Summer schools, intensive programmes, and short courses run by accredited educational institutions
- MOOCs and online courses offered free or as part of an accredited programme
- In-class sessions, flipped classrooms, pre-class assignments, and embedding in institutional LMS platforms (Moodle, Canvas, Blackboard, etc.)
- Student competitions, hackathons, and entrepreneurship programmes run by educational institutions
- Academic research, conference workshops, faculty development, and pedagogical experimentation
- Non-profit organisations, charities, and government-funded skills programmes delivered at no charge to participants
- Self-directed learning by individuals for personal or professional development
The key principle: if the setting is primarily educational and not structured as a paid commercial service, it is permitted. Educators are encouraged to adapt the simulation and share their innovations under the same licence.
NonCommercial (NC) — Commercial Use
Not permitted without a separate licence — Commercial use: A separate licence is required for contexts where the simulation is used as part of a paid commercial service, including:
- Executive education programmes where participants or their employers pay fees for the training
- Corporate training, leadership development, or in-house learning programmes
- Paid consulting engagements that incorporate the simulation as a deliverable
- Commercial workshops, bootcamps, or accelerator programmes
- Reselling, sublicensing, or bundling the simulation into paid products or services
- Hosting behind a paywall or charging access fees in any form
The key principle: if participants or their sponsors are paying specifically for the experience and the simulation is a material part of what they receive, a commercial licence is needed.
