Since its inception, the SimCenter has actively sought collaboration with other public and
private sector organizations involved in medical simulation. Many of these collaborations
have evolved into partnerships that focus on research; curriculum development; validation
of simulations and simulators.
One such partnership is the Mid-Atlantic Consortium of Clinical Skills Centers representing
9 medical schools in the Mid-Atlantic region. The collaborative fosters new innovations in
clinical skills assessment involving human simulation (SPs). Another partnership is with the
Defense Medical Modeling and Simulation office at the Defense Health Agency (DHA)
which allows our SimCenter to interface with simulation policy leaders in the Army’s
Central Simulation Committee, the Navy’s Medical Modeling and Simulation Training
Program (NMMAST) and the Air Force Medical Modeling and Simulation Training Program
(AFMMAST).
Other collaborations include the National University of Singapore, the Department of
Homeland Security, the Prince George’s County Fire and EMS, and the Office of Attending
Physician of the U.S. Capitol.
Academic Health Center collaboratives include the University of Maryland, The University
of Pittsburgh, The University of Texas Health Science Center San Antonio, the Mayo Clinic,
Phoenix, AZ and the Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey CA (NPS). The NPS and USU
have partnered since 2013 to develop and deliver a one year graduate level certificate in
healthcare simulation.
