The program as online format
Train management know-how and
decision-making skills in four weeks
We offer the MARGA Management Training as an open e-learning program based on a business simulation. The participants train comprehensive management know-how and learn to think and act in a entrepreneurial manner.
Within four succinct weeks, the program offers a sophisticated combination of webinars as well as individual learning and virtual teamwork. Experienced MARGA trainers support the participants during their self-directed teamwork.
Learning by Doing
During the program, participants take over the management of their own virtual company as team. They develop strategies and make decisions in the areas of marketing, production, human resources and finance over several game periods. The aim is to increase the value of the company. Efficient controlling ensures transparency and provides comprehensive information for the next planning period.
Participants experience the effects of their decisions at first hand and develop a feeling for business management interrelationships. Our experienced MARGA tutors provide the participants with intensive support throughout the entire programme on content-related and organizational issues.

MARGA has been an established partner for many customers since 1971. Our partners use MARGA successfully in various target groups across all industries.
Through the MARGA Business Simulation, I understood the connection between marketing, production and finance and how the decisions in each area affect the value of the company. Great Management Training – The online game was a lot of fun especially thanks to the competent and dedicated MARGA coaches. I would recommend the training to anyone who wants to deepen their knowledge in business management and financial ratios.
