What is Critical Path?
Critical Path is a browser-based simulation that places you inside realistic project environments where success is earned by balancing cost, schedule, quality, risk and stakeholder expectations. through experience.
Project scenarios emerge dynamically based on project conditions, prior decisions, and evolving constraints. While each playthrough is unique, it is never arbitrary. The system is designed to ensure balanced exposure to core project management knowledge areas over time.
Every decision affects real performance metrics, including budget, earned value, schedule health, quality, team morale, scope, and client trust, mirroring how projects succeed or fail.
PDHs and Professional Development
Critical Path supports structured professional development by tracking scenario completion time and learning categories aligned with industry frameworks. Participants can document engagement and export completion certificates for PDH or CEU consideration, subject to employer or licensing board approval.
This makes the platform especially relevant for engineers, project managers, and technical professionals seeking meaningful, practice-based learning instead of passive content consumption.
