What is Simulation?
Simulation-based learning provides students with a safe, hands-on way to practice their skills. These immersive activities simulate a workplace environment, allowing students to step into real-world scenarios and make important decisions, without the risks of an actual workplace.
By connecting classroom theory with practical experience, simulation activities help students:
- Build confidence in their abilities
- Improve decision-making skills
- Prepare for future careers with industry-level training
Benefits of Simulation
- Risk-Free Environment: Practice high-stakes decision-making within a controlled, simulated setting
- Practical Application: Test theories and techniques in scenarios that mimic real-world complexities
- Skill Enhancement: Improve critical thinking, technical handling, and timely decision-making skills
- Confidence Building: Develop greater self-assurance before entering actual professional environments
