Technical requirements for using ScenarioSpace

ScenarioSpace is a web-based platform that allows you to run interactive, scenario-based training sessions.

No special software is required to use ScenarioSpace, and the site is designed to be accessible on all modern browsers on smartphones, tablets and laptops.

To ensure the best experience for you and your participants, we recommend you share this page with your IT team before running your first session.

Before your first session, check that:

  • These domains are allowlisted: scenariospace.org, *.scenariospace.org, join.staff.training.
  • WebSockets are allowed through your network.
  • Your internet connection is stable.
  • Participants have access to a mobile, tablet or laptop with a modern web browser.

Domains

If a school’s network or devices are configured in such a way as to prevent unknown network traffic or to enforce other particular security measures, you may be blocked from accessing the ScenarioSpace website.

We recommend that you ask your IT team to explicitly allow the following domains to pass network traffic through on network firewalls, proxies and physical devices:

  • scenariospace.org
  • *.scenariospace.org
  • join.staff.training

Websockets

WebSockets are an internet browser technology that enables real-time updates for highly interactive activities, like ScenarioSpace sessions.

Certain network setups may impact the ability for WebSockets to work. We therefore recommend that you ask your IT team to ensure that WebSockets are allowed through your network.
