Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is the role of the teacher (team supervisor)?
A: The teacher registers the team. Then, pupils make decisions on their own and no further intervention is needed.
Q: How does the registration process look like?
A: The teacher, who is the team supervisor, registers the team consisting of 3 students. The registration is done using a registration form that requires the following data about the students: name, surname, email address. After submitting the application, both the supervisor and all students receive a link to accept the consent to the processing of their personal data. Once everyone confirm, the application is ready.

Q: How does the competition look like?
A: Pupils run virtual companies online making realistic business decisions. First phase of the competition is a 3-hour onboarding session where participants get to know the simulation and play 2 rounds with Revas instructors. This is the only part when we all need to meet at fixed time. Then, next rounds participants play on their own according to the competition schedule (1 round per week). During the second stage, participants get to choose the most suitable time for them in the week to complete the tasks. There are no fixed times for decision-making. At the end, we find the winner! :)
