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. |

Sharon ImperialeMEd, Instructional Designer, Brookline CollegeWe adopted your system in March 2020 when we had to quickly move to online instruction. I want to personally thank you and your company for jumping through hoops to help us. Your customer service is top of the line and we were ready and using SIMTICS in three days. Brookline College is a fan for life.

Glenda Algaze, CPhT, CDA, MEdDental Assisting FacultyYour program has been invaluable to my teaching instruction. In these times of students not being able to attend their clinical sites, this program is so wonderful.

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.

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.
