Welcome to SIM City. In the advancement of medical education, we strive to provide the most unique learning environments for our students and faculty alike. With change comes development of both cognitive and didactic skills. It is these skills that will shape how we educate in the field of medicine for years to come. Utilizing a unique blast approach to deliver information, educators from all over the country will provide the latest trends in simulation-based education and the data to support this growing desire for technology-based education. While understanding why we are here is important, we are often trying to answer "how do I get there." The afternoon break-out sessions have been designed to answer that exact question. You will have the opportunity to choose a track allowing you to have open cross-institutional brainstorming and sharing of ideas. Everyone is a pioneer is simulation! Let us learn from each other, teach others about our experience, and show the value of simulation to our students.
