Scottish Clinical Simulation Centre

The Scottish Clinical Simulation Centre is a state-of the-art multi-professional training facility and the only high fidelity simulation centre in Scotland.

Our Vision:

  • To develop and support a national network of experts in the delivery of Simulation Based Education.
  • To maximise the utilisation and effectiveness of simulation for learning amongst frontline healthcare staff.
  • To optimise the quality of Simulation Based Education which will augment clinical performance and therefore achieve the ultimate goal of improved patient safety.

Courses

Our faculty of experts in simulation based medical education (SBME) oversee the  design and delivery of courses, in conjunction with subject matter experts.  This process ensures that course learning objectives are tailored for and appropriate to the target learners. See our List of Courses for more info.

Faculty Development

SBME is increasingly recognised as a pivotal part of training a safe and capable healthcare workforce.  Many people approach the Centre expressing an interest in developing themselves as SBME facilitators.  We have Train the Trainers type courses centered on helping you to do this.  There are also a limited number of observer and developing faculty places on some of our courses. If you are interested, please see our faculty development section.
