Subject: Attend AAEM's Simulation Workshop in Miami - $75 discount

AAEM is now offering a $75 discount to attend the workshop titled "Simulation in the Clinical Teaching Setting". We feel that this course is worthy of your attention and that is why we are now offering this discount. Please consider attending this workshop on Thursday,

Cost of the course is now $120.00. Full course description follows.

Simulation in the Clinical Teaching Setting

Course Description

This course will introduce physicians to high-fidelity simulation and its use in clinical teaching. A combination of didactic instruction, demonstration, and hands-on simulation sessions will provide participants with the opportunity to learn about and experience an educational session with this cutting-edge training tool.

The course will address the application of simulation to medicine, specifically including the potential for training in critical decision making, critical procedure performance, and teamwork improvement in high-stress scenarios. Training demonstrations will illustrate the educational potential of the high-fidelity simulators. The discussion will also analyze the evidence currently available that supports the use of simulation training in medical education.

The course faculty are residency educators with three years of practical experience in simulation training. In order to increase the individualized attention to questions, the course is limited to no more than 40 participants.

Credit Designation 

AAEM designates this educational activity for a maximum of 3.75 hours of Category 1 credit towards the AMA Physician's Recognition Award. Each physician should claim only those hours of credit he or she actually spends in the educational activity.

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this course participants will:

1. Discuss potential educational uses of simulator-based training 2. Understand the principles involved in the use of high-fidelity simulation and training. 3. Understand the basic tenets of simulator scenario development
