The Ross and Carol Nese College of Nursing has various options for simulation-related professional development and training. Learn more below.
Simulation Development for Healthcare Educators
Join us for a two-part Simulation Development Course for Healthcare Educators. Part one is delivered virtually in four learning modules. Part two is a 2.5-day, immersive in-person experience in our Simulation Laboratory at the Penn State Ross and Carol Nese College of Nursing, University Park, PA.
Virtual learning modules will open the last week of March 2024. In-person sessions will be April 28–30, 2024.
Evaluation in Simulation: Using Data for Quality Improvement and Curriculum Development
April 23, 2024, 12:00–1:00 p.m.
Join us for a free webinar designed to identify three ways to use simulation evaluation data for quality improvement and competency-based evaluation, as well as discover the key components of the Evaluation of Learning and Performance standard as listed in the Healthcare Simulation Standards of Practice™.
PREBRIEF: Preparing Students for a Successful Simulation
This on-demand webinar discusses the importance of prebriefing to prepare students for a successful simulation experience. Topics that will be covered include the role that prebriefing plays in preparing learners for a successful simulation-based learning experience (SBLE), the key components of simulation prebriefing as listed in the Healthcare Simulation Standards of Best Practice™, and developing a plan to incorporate an effective prebriefing into your SBLE.
The delivery of this seminar is associated with a small fee of $15. However, college faculty members are encouraged to email nursece@psu.edu to discuss a few exemptions.
Debriefing to Promote Clinical Judgment: Use in Simulation, Clinical and Classroom
This on-demand webinar provides a brief introduction into the importance of the debriefing process during simulation, clinical and classroom time, while providing a foundation for skills needed to proctor and facilitate effective debriefing. Topics that will be covered include the criterion necessary to meet the Healthcare Simulation Standard of Best Practice™, various theory-based debriefing methodologies, research supporting the debriefing process and ways to integrate these techniques into current teaching styles.
The delivery of this seminar is associated with a small fee of $15. However, college faculty members are encouraged to email nursece@psu.edu to discuss a fee exemption.
Current Topics in Simulation
This on-demand webinar offers exploration of considerations when planning a simulation-enhanced IPE (interprofessional education) experience, identifies potential uses of hybrid simulation to meet learning objectives in all three learning domains (cognitive, affective, and psychomotor), and assists with developing a plan to incorporate all the elements of the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) Clinical Judgment Measurement Model into simulation-based learning.
The delivery of this seminar is associated with a small fee of $15. However, college faculty members are encouraged to email nursece@psu.edu to discuss a few exemptions.
