Abstract: Systems and methods providing distributed training simulations are provided. A system may include a trainer station computer in operable communication with multiple trainee workstation computers. The trainer station computer can be operable to: facilitate simulation of plant operations on at least one of the trainee workstation computers; and monitor operations performed by at least one of the trainee workstation computers. The trainee workstation computers can be operable to: display the simulation of plant operations to a user; receive control instructions input to cause a change in the simulation of plant operations; and transmit to the trainer station computer information associated with at least one of: (a) the control instructions input; or (b) the change in the simulation of plant operations.
