Meet Your Instructor: Harry Munro
Simulation Specialist and Chartered Engineer with the Institute of Mechanical Engineers.
I've been working with simulation for over 14 years across all sorts of industries, from transport to mining to defence to energy.
Simulation is the beating heart of everything I do. It's how I 10x'd my annual earnings and achieved financial freedom. It's how I enjoy a fully flexible, remote lifestyle. And it's why people seek me out from all over the world for help with their modelling and simulation projects.
My work has never been dull: from individual contributor to team lead, tech lead, business owner and consultant. This allows me to bring a unique perspective to training and coaching others.
Based remotely across the UK and Bermuda, I enjoy rum-fuelled island life with my beautiful wife and son, while helping others to create their own success stories.
“If you’re considering learning simulation from Harry, you couldn’t be in better hands.”
"Harry is the ultimate professional when it comes to simulation. I had the privilege of working alongside him at Anglo American, where he led the creation of a cutting-edge simulation product from scratch. Harry’s ability to bridge simulation, software, and systems engineering while keeping everything practical and results-focused is unmatched. He’s not just a technical expert - he’s also a skilled leader who excels at stakeholder engagement and project delivery. If you’re considering learning simulation from Harry, you couldn’t be in better hands. His expertise and practical approach will give you the tools to succeed."

Frequently Asked Questions
Don't worry, I've got you. Here are some answers for your questions.
What if I can't program in Python?
Fear not! The course includes complimentary access my 10-day Python bootcamp course should you need it. So you can go from absolute beginner in Python to building working simulations in no time at all.
Inside The Complete Simulation in Python Bootcamp we primarily work with single file scripts. You should at a minimum be able to understand and program functions in Python. The 10-day Python Bootcamp will get you there if not.
Do I need to complete the course straight away?
Short answer, no. Everyone learns in their own way and at their own pace. To maximise flexibility, the material within the School of Simulation is entirely self-paced.
You get lifetime access and unlimited access to future updates as they arrive. The structure of the material is designed to progress chronologically from beginner to advanced topics, however you are free to dip in and out as you please.
You can get through all the content as fast as possible if you have the time, or you can dip in and out as needed months or even years from now.
Will this help me move away from my off-the-shelf discrete-event simulation software?
Yes. By the end of this course you will have the confidence to ditch your discrete-event simulation software and build all your simulations in Python.
How long does the course take?
Expect to spend 20-30 hours in total to fully complete the course, including watching videos, working through examples, completing quizzes and assignments.
What is the sound quality like and are you understandable to a native English speaker? What about accessibility for hard of hearing?
I use a good quality microphone for all recordings and de-noise in audio post-processing, so the sound quality is good.
I am British and grew up around London in the UK - so I speak with a fairly traditional Southern English accent which should be widely understandable by English speakers.
All of the video lessons come with optional English subtitles for viewing without sound or for people with hearing disability. I currently only offer English subtitles.
Do I need to complete the course straight away?
Yes. Enrolling is 100% risk free - you get my 30 day money-back guarantee. If you are not happy for any reason then I will provide you with a refund, no questions asked. It's easy within the platform to do this with the "request refund" button. Any hiccups you can email me harry@teachem.digital and I will help you out.
