The Business Simulation Suite is a flexible technologically-enhanced learning facility. The room contains sliding partitions that can quickly transform the suite into a mock boardroom, a classroom, or a room for practising speech and presentation skills.

The room has a podium and wall-mounted monitors for recording and playback, as well as locker access to 30 laptops. The suite seats up to 32 people depending on the room arrangement.

A monitoring room, with one-way-mirror, is connected so lecturers or assessors can view students giving presentations or chairing meetings. This allows for less intrusive recording for later playback.

Attached to the suite is a soundproof room, with furniture arranged to replicate a standard interview room, in which students can practice job interviews and meetings.

A virtual reality headset is available, which puts whoever is wearing it into an artificial environment with a prerecorded audience. There's also a small observation room where assessors can observe the activities in the suite while remaining out of sight.
