<div class="gmail_quote">The Experience Accelerator is an advanced game-development contest put on this year by Stevens, in which independent teams develop a "Serious Game" that reinforces the principles of systems engineering. I've received permission to send this out to the SGDC so you can take part. It's a serious competition, with entrants from universities around the world, and a lot of prize money and reputation at stake.</div>
<div class="gmail_quote"><br></div><div class="gmail_quote">This free Webinar will give you all the information you need, and will connect you with the other professionals and students entering the competition. Serious Gaming is a hugely in-demand field, and this experience could be instrumental to a gaming career.</div>

<br>
The goal is to create a game that provides insights, wisdom, and improved decision-making skills by creating a "safe" but realistic environment for decision-making where the participants have to make the trade-offs between the need for more analysis and information and the need to "get done" with the limited time and resources available.</span></span></div>
