Anytime. Anywhere. Learning.
NLN Simulation Innovation Resource Center courses are an online e-learning solution for simulation faculty and staff development. The SIRC courses are designed for faculty and staff development, and include topics covering everything from the basics of integrating and debriefing simulations, to conducting evaluation and research. Continuing Education (CE) credits are offered for each of these courses.
Reimagining Simulation Education with SIRC
The new NLN SIRC is a series of online courses designed to provide nurse educators with professional development to curate the skills that enhance the learning experience.
SIRC Foundation Courses
The SIRC Foundation Courses are designed as a virtual, asynchronous, and self-paced experience. Institutional purchases are sold in groups of 10. Learners have access to these courses for 12 months (once a code has been activated).
SIRC Deeper Dive Courses
The Deeper Dive Courses are designed as a virtual, synchronous experience, with expert simulation educator facilitation. Approximately 1 hour of preparatory work may be required prior to attending the synchronous session. Course-related content will be accessible for 3 weeks.
Institutional Access to SIRC Courses
The SIRC courses can be purchased through Laerdal Medical as an institutional license to provide staff with access to some or all SIRC courses. The institutional access is valid for 12 months (once a code has been activated) and enables you to offer the SIRC course(s) to your staff. If you are interested in an institutional account, please reach out to us via the “Request More Information” form below.
