Becoming Simulation Faculty
A face-to-face workshop training healthcare educators to design, deliver and evaluate simulation and immersive learning.
This national programme supports the development of a multiprofessional faculty of educators, practitioners, technicians and managers from higher education institutions and NHS organisations who want to design, deliver and evaluate simulation and immersive learning. This programme also recognises the capabilities required by colleagues interested in applying simulation and immersive technologies to patient safety and quality improvement workstreams.
The programme is designed to support colleagues across healthcare organisations as they explore teaching with simulation and immersive learning approaches, and to provide a platform on which further local training can be based.
After completing the programme, colleagues will have CPD accredited evidence of professional development in this field that can be used to help focus further attainment of skills and practise, as well as within personal portfolios for appraisal purposes.
The Core Course of Becoming Simulation Faculty consists of 6 eLearning topics and a face to face workshop which have been authored by a multi professional group of experts.
It is expected that course participants will have completed all 6 eLearning topics prior to attending a core course workshop.
Several additional topics have also been released, but these are not required to be completed to attend the workshop.
