Simulation Training Opportunities from WISER

I saw this post from Dr. Phrampus on the INACSL listserve and am sharing it if anyone is interested and has the ability to take advantage of this great opportunity:

WISER at the Univeristy of Pittsburgh in collaboration with the Gordon Center at the University of Miami have created a Healthacare Simulation Instructor Development Program that has been running over the last year. We are training our own intructors as well as making it available to others. In about two weeks, we will have the next one in Pittsburgh, one in Singapore in October and one in Miami in November. More information is available at http://www.wiser.pitt.edu/apps/courses/courseview.asp?course_id=6358 This type of course prepares folks to achieve competence at teaching and facilitating with simulation methods. Then we usually have specific instructor training for new insturctors on the course by course basis, to ensure they master the nuance of the specific program.

Best of luck in your effforts,
-Paul
