Best Practices Workshop, presented by ASPE, INACSL & SSH

Standards, Core Competencies and Best Practices in Healthcare Simulation Workshop

General Information 

The Standards, Core Competencies, and Best Practices in Healthcare Simulation Series is a partnership program of the Association of Standardized Patient Educators (ASPE), the Society for Simulation in Healthcare (SSH), and the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation and Learning (INACSL). 
   
The workshop includes four interactive one-hour sessions held online via zoom in order to provide better access to this important educational content for simulation professionals from programs of all sizes.  The program content is designed to help healthcare simulation educators improve the quality of their healthcare simulation programs and advance their professional development.  In addition, workshop faculty will review the simulation standards and resources available to assist educators in advancing simulation in a changing regulatory environment.
  

During this workshop participants will discuss the application of best practices in healthcare simulation, including the following:

  • INACSL Standards of Best Practice: Simulation
  • ASPE Standards of Best Practices using Standardized Patient Methodology
  • SSH Accreditation Standards
  • SSH Certification Requirements (CHSE, CHSE-A, CHSOS, CHSOS-A) 
  • Join us for the first cohort, beginning April 7. We will meet weekly on Wednesdays from April 7 – April 28 at 5:00 PM Eastern (US).

Workshop Cost:  Only $75!

Attendees receive 8 Joint Education Continuing Education credits for participating in this program workshop.
