RIVA TEAM

We make the difference

The Team

Peo­p­le make the dif­fe­rence. At riva, we have been ful­ly com­mit­ted to the visi­on of “Acti­ve Lear­ning with Simu­la­ti­on Games” for almost 30 years. The core of our team con­sists of the foun­ders, mana­ging direc­tors, trai­ners and developers.

Tog­e­ther with a net­work of trai­ners at our part­ners and cus­to­mers, we use riva busi­ness games in a varie­ty of indus­tries and appli­ca­ti­on sce­na­ri­os with sus­tainable success.

RIVA SIMULATION & GAMING

Reality is simulated. The learning situation is authentic. The learning outcomes are real.

Our Simulation Games

riva simu­la­ti­on games allow a wide ran­ge of appli­ca­ti­ons also in your com­pa­ny, your edu­ca­tio­nal insti­tu­ti­on, for your employees, cus­to­mers and partners.

You can have our riva Aca­de­my deli­ver the busi­ness games for your orga­niza­ti­on or expe­ri­ence them yours­elf at our open semi­nars. Depen­ding on your needs, you may licen­se our simu­la­ti­on games and qua­li­fy your own trai­ners to faci­li­ta­te our games in your com­pa­ny or university.

riva Academy

The riva Aca­de­my turns the riva simu­la­ti­on games into best-in-class trai­ning offers for our customers.

Open and innovative

The riva Aca­de­my stands for the high­ly pro­fes­sio­nal imple­men­ta­ti­on of our simu­la­ti­on games and offers an open semi­nar program.

Our simu­la­ti­on games are con­duc­ted by trai­ners who have been cer­ti­fied by riva and are in clo­se cont­act with the deve­lo­pers of the simu­la­ti­on games.

The riva Aca­de­my gua­ran­tees the best pos­si­ble and inte­gral lear­ning suc­cess with inno­va­ti­ve methods and solu­ti­ons - and this equal­ly in face-to-face semi­nars or as an online simu­la­ti­on game.

A Short Movie About Riva

Projekte_RIVA-1399

An active, motivating learning environment

interaktiv.png

Interactive and creative

The com­bi­na­ti­on of group work, chal­lenges and dis­cus­sions crea­tes a moti­vat­ing and exci­ting lear­ning envi­ron­ment that opti­mal­ly sup­ports acti­ve lear­ning and leads to sus­tainable lear­ning suc­cess for the participants.

risiko-1.png

Play with joy

The use of playful ele­ments streng­thens the par­ti­ci­pan­ts’ tech­ni­cal, metho­do­lo­gi­cal and social skills. Our simu­la­ti­on games are cha­rac­te­ri­zed by the joy of lear­ning, the best pre­re­qui­si­te for effec­ti­ve, sus­tainable learning.

agil-1.png

Agile and balanced

Our trai­ners respond indi­vi­du­al­ly to the par­ti­ci­pan­ts indi­vi­du­al needs and adapt the con­tent and methods to the level of know­ledge of the group. We work exclu­si­ve­ly with expe­ri­en­ced trai­ners who under­stand and can sup­port our cus­to­mers’ requi­re­ments and busi­ness models.

team-1.png

Diversity and collaboration

Diver­se teams enable inno­va­ti­ve and crea­ti­ve action and thin­king, and team­work is streng­the­ned. Chal­lenges fos­ter and pro­mo­te joint per­for­mance. Every par­ti­ci­pant wins and the team as a who­le bene­fits sustainably.

timer-1.png

Focused and organized

Inter­ac­tion and decis­i­on-making are at the cen­ter of our busi­ness games. This makes our simu­la­ti­on games enter­tai­ning and high­ly effi­ci­ent. The par­ti­ci­pan­ts expe­ri­ence the effects of their actions and decis­i­ons direct­ly. Mista­kes are allo­wed, and lear­ning from mista­kes is encouraged.

digital.png

Digital and innovative

The use of digi­tal tools leads to a moti­vat­ing lear­ning envi­ron­ment and offers natu­ral and con­tem­po­ra­ry space for imple­men­ta­ti­on and reflec­tion. Inno­va­ti­ve methods expand this space into a com­pre­hen­si­ve lear­ning experience.
