Simulation Clinical Scenario Design Workshop for Practicing Clinicians

This workshop is a hands-on, interactive training designed to help practicing clinicians develop effective simulation-based clinical scenarios. Participants are guided step by step through the process of defining learning objectives, setting the clinical context, designing scenario flow, and aligning assessment and debriefing strategies. Using structured worksheets and facilitated discussion, learners leave the session with a draft simulation scenario tailored to their own clinical and educational needs.
