Abstract
A training tool for chemical engineering students with the aim of promoting a proper learning environment in decision making related to production and operations management (POM) was developed. This tool is supported on discrete event simulation, by which end users can pose different scenarios of operation of the production process, using the production of soap as a study case, and evaluates how they affect system performance in terms of production level achieved. The tool developed not only addresses the production of soap, but also takes into account the distribution of raw materials for processing and distribution of final products among other decisions addressed by the POM. The study shows the importance of simulation in the teaching / learning process, especially on issues related to the production and operations management
