Right out of school, nobody trains you for your first real role: week one, you're in a meeting with your finance manager, processing years of budget data you've never seen, on a platform you just got access to, with an onboarding guide that doesn't cover it and a manager who doesn't have time. ThinkHigher bridges that gap through customizable voice simulations that let students practice high-stakes workplace conversations before day one, with personas, scenarios, and domains configurable by institutions and instructors to match their students' target roles across finance, education, healthcare, and beyond.
Key Features
- SIMULATION-BASED ASSESSMENT — ThinkHigher moves beyond knowledge recall by placing students inside real workplace scenarios. Instead of testing what students know, it tests how they think, closing the gap between academic preparation and actual workplace demands.
- VOICE-DRIVEN AI CHARACTERS — Students speak directly with AI-powered workplace personas (e.g., Chief of Staff, Finance Manager, Data Specialist) that respond naturally, push back when reasoning is shallow, and close down when students aren't probing. The audio interface mirrors how real workplace conversations unfold.
- CUSTOMIZABLE WORKPLACE SIMULATIONS — Institutions and instructors can configure the personas, scenario context, and domain to match students' target roles. The Ridgeline simulation, where a newly hired analyst must diagnose a college's financial crisis, is one example.
- SIX-DIMENSION EVALUATION FRAMEWORK — Each session is automatically scored across six dimensions: information gathering, analytical thinking, communication, problem solving, originality, and elaboration. Scores are grounded in established cognitive assessment frameworks and map directly to specific things the student said, or didn't say, in the conversation.
