Congratulations to Siriraj Medical Simulation Center for Education and Training (SiMSET) for being accredited “Provisional Accreditation” by the Society for Simulation in Healthcare (SSH), USA!
The SSH’s Provisional Accreditation allows programs with established structure and processes, but have not yet achieved outcomes to apply for preliminary accreditation. Current Full SSH Accreditation Standards require demonstrating outcomes. Because of this requirement, simulation programs are required to be in operation for a minimum of two years prior to seeking accreditation. Provisional Accreditation is granted for two (2) years and allows simulation programs to seek accreditation earlier by focusing on the structure and processes to accredit those aspects of the applying program. Programs seeking SSH Provisional Accreditation will demonstrate compliance with Core Standards and Teaching/Education Standards.
