SIMUL8 Healthcare Modeling Course Overview
This 2-day course is specifically tailored to meet the needs of the healthcare industry. Modeling situations unique to healthcare will be emphasized including modeling outpatient clinics, administration, emergency facilities, 'fast-tracking', and clinical pathway analysis.
By the end of the course you'll be able to undertake your own simulation projects and identify projects for which simulation is an appropriate tool.
Pre-Course Requirements
The only prerequisite for attending this training course is that you must have some general PC knowledge including the use of files and directories, as well as familiarity with basic spreadsheet applications.
It is useful for the delegate to have a basic understanding of the areas they'd like to simulate after the course. This gives the delegate the opportunity to discuss their applications during the course.
