Clinical Simulation Certificate Program

Are you a skilled healthcare provider thrust into (or invited to participate in) clinical simulation for your hospital or unit? If so, this program might be what you need to enhance your skills.

Healthcare educational and safety needs at the local, national, and global arena change at a pace challenging for all of us to learn and absorb. Interprofessional staff from the novice to the expert need various modalities to learn from and with each other to impact patient care. A popular solution for needed training, practice, and education is clinical simulation. Yet, excellent healthcare providers thrust into simulation due to their proficient clinical skills may lack the fundamental preparation and knowledge to assess and educate others. Therefore, the clinical simulation program assists the skilled healthcare provider with the basic knowledge to support your efforts at meaningful instruction to students, peers, and the interprofessional team. The program provides teaching/learning strategy to assist the teacher and learner alike in developing confidence in their practice.

The Clinical Simulation program incorporates the INACSL Standards of Best Practice to broaden your fundamental understanding of and prepare you for future certification in clinical simulation if desired. Additionally, the clinical simulation program assists those wanting to develop a simulation center for their institution or improve current operations and quality improvement within their existing center.
