Event Description
The Simulation Certification Program fosters excellence in nursing education in Canada through faculty development in simulation-based pedagogy, practices, and technologies. The program prepares nurse educators to address a broad complement of practice learning needs and the full range of simulation typologies.
The Simulation Certification Program encompasses four modules, each offered once per calendar year. Although the given sequence is recommended, modules may be taken in any order and over the course of two years. Every module culminates in a submitted assignment and a multiple-choice exam. Upon successful completion of all four modules, participants will be prepared to write the national certification exam to achieve the Canadian Certified Simulation Nurse Educator (CCSNE) designation.
The first module of the program focuses on competencies 1 and 2, which primarily address the initial phases of a simulation-based experience. Participants will learn to assess, develop, implement, and evaluate simulation as a teaching and learning tool that facilitates practice learning in nursing education. They will also learn to create and integrate simulation theory/knowledge into courses and programs to facilitate the acquisition of entry-to-practice nursing competencies among nursing students.
