Simulation Workshop - Embedded Simulation Participant (ESP)

Between Monday 6 July 2026 and Tuesday 15 December 2026
Are you looking to enhance your healthcare simulation skills? Our four-hour Embedded Simulated Participant (ESP) workshop is a fantastic opportunity to learn how to become an effective ESP who enhances the realism and educational value of simulated healthcare scenarios. ESPs play a crucial role in helping participants meet learning objectives in simulated healthcare scenarios. By portraying specific roles, such as patients, family members, or other healthcare team members, ESPs create a realistic healthcare environment that allows learners to practice and apply clinical skills in a safe and controlled setting. Led by experienced simulation educators, this workshop introduces and helps you to develop the skills necessary to participate in simulated healthcare scenarios as a simulated team member. Through a combination of didactic and hands-on activities, you will learn how to effectively integrate into a simulated healthcare team, challenge learners to think critically and make decisions based on patient needs and clinical guidelines as well as how to provide valuable feedback during debriefing sessions. Whether you are a healthcare professional looking to enhance your simulation skills or an educator seeking to improve the quality of simulation-based education, this workshop is a valuable opportunity to develop critical simulation skills which contribute to improved learning outcomes and better patient care in real-life healthcare settings. Register now and take the first step towards becoming an effective ESP!
