Initiating a working session (log in)

BOSS is an easy-to-use web-based platform which needs no prior computer skills or expertise. There is no software to install on your computer; all you need in a web browser such as Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox or Chrome.

The use of BOSS is strictly reserved to participants who have a valid Participant Activation Key (PAK) and who have registered on www.stratxsimulations.com. If you have not yet obtained a PAK or have not yet registered, we advise you to do it now. Please refer to the “Getting started (Participants)” page for explanations on how to register.

You will need four pieces of information to start a BOSS session:

 

The last three elements will be given to you by your instructor. If this has not yet been done, please contact him or her.

You will have to log in BOSS each time you want to review your latest simulation results and/or make decisions. To log in, go to www.stratxsimulations.com and follow the instructions below.

•   Click the Login link at the top-right corner of the page and select “A Participant” in the “You are :” drop-down box.

•   Enter your PAK and click the “Submit” button.

•   You may now click the “Access BOSS WEB” button on the home page and start your BOSS working session
