Better skills performance, more feedback and lower cost
| In Person Labs | In Person Labs +  |
||
| Skills Development | Much of in person lab time is spent waiting for a turn and passively watching someone else. | Students get more practice than they would with an in-person lab. On-demand repetition also helps students build skills quickly and retain knowledge longer. | |
| Cost | High cost structure for lab space, equipment, consumables, staff and maintenance. | More cost-effective than in-person labs. Save money through less wear and tear on equipment and lower consumables usage. | |
| Ease of Access | In-person lab time is limited and caps student practice time. | Easily accessible - literally anytime and anywhere, as often as needed. | |
| Real Time Feedback | Instructors have limited bandwidth to provide real time feedback for every student. Feedback is primarily subjective. | Objective, real time formative feedback while learning. Plus detailed, summative performance feedback for both students and faculty. | |
| Confidence | Students often suffer from performance anxiety when performing a procedure for the first time in a lab or clinical setting. | Students who work with SIMTICS simulations have much higher confidence levels when they actually have to complete a new procedure in a lab or clinical setting. | |
Learn by doing. It's the smarter way.
 |
Learn by doingSimulation engages the brain, making it a powerful way to learn, practice and perfect cognitive clinical skills. |
 |
Practice and improveWeb-based, so learners can practice as often as they want and track progress while they learn, to ensure they reach competence. |
 |
Self-testingStudents can test their skills in the test-mode simulations and be perfectly prepared for labs & externships. |

Barb WestrickProgram Director, MedCerts LLCI can confidently say that our students in allied health programs are successfully using SIMTICS. This cloud-based resource is an excellent way to practice clinical skills with eLearning.

Joel NelsonVP of Academic Operations, Charter CollegeThe transition to using SIMTICS went better than even my best case guess. The training provided to faculty and integration with our LMS (Canvas) were top notch. Students took to the simulations right away, finding them informative as well as engaging. During face to face lab time, the students are well prepared to practice the skills learned via SIMTICS in a clinical setting. We are impressed with the product.

Shelly HoltMA Program Director, Chattahoochee Valley Community CollegeIn lab, some students quite unsure of themselves but they may not voice those feelings. And when you have only one instructor, if they can’t practice the procedures first, it takes a lot more one-on-one time with them. Often I had to stay back or open the lab up again. SIMTICS has cut down on that. Students are prepared and arrive with knowledge from using the simulations. And after the lab is over, they still have access. They can go back to SIMTICS and refresh their skills, especially when it’s time to go to preceptorship. My students absolutely love it.

Dr. Eric GoldsmithAssistant Dean for Clinical Affairs, College of Osteopathic Medicine, NSUThe students get to learn about a procedure and practice it virtually before they do the hands-on time. They can build on that knowledge in the hands-on session. Importantly, faculty are able to track what the students are doing, whether they've completed each assignment or not, and whether they've achieved a level of competence.

Brian Dickens, MBA PhDMedical Assisting Program Director, FloridaThis product is AMAZING. Reasonably priced and superb customer service. SIMTICS is great for visual learners and reinforces critical thinking. We are using it to aid our Medical Assisting and Sonography classes, for skills check off, and as an adjunct to externships.
