  • Ensure the effective operation of the Simulation Center and experiential learning environments across the University.
  • Lead the continued development of innovative simulation and experiential learning methodologies.
  • Oversee the master schedule for simulation and learning laboratory utilization across courses, programs, and campuses.
  • Maintain oversight of simulation and laboratory equipment inventory, preventive maintenance, calibration, replacement planning, and capital needs.
  • Explore and support emerging technologies and innovative approaches that enhance experiential learning.

Ensure Quality, Compliance & Accreditation
  • Provide strategic oversight of accreditation and compliance for experiential education, including CCNE and ACEN standards and applicable state board of nursing requirements.
  • Obtain and maintain Society for Simulation in Healthcare (SSH) accreditation and INACSL endorsement for the Simulation Center.
  • Ensure simulation practices align with the INACSL Healthcare Simulation Standards of Best Practice.
  • Monitor state requirements governing the use of simulation in place of clinical hours and ensure compliance across applicable programs and states.
  • Maintain policies and processes supporting scenario design, faculty qualification, debriefing, evaluation, and confidentiality.
  • Own the experiential learning evidence base used for accreditation and state approval.
  • Lead continuous improvement initiatives using experiential learning and student outcome data.

Drive Operational Excellence
  • Own the experiential education operating budget, including resource allocation, space planning, and capital investment.
  • Evaluate experiential learning environments to ensure they support course and program objectives.
  • Ensure experiential faculty are appropriately qualified and that qualifications are documented.
  • Establish and maintain systems that promote quality and consistency across regions and delivery modalities.
  • Provide experiential education data and reporting to the Dean of Nursing and Associate Dean of Nursing and Compliance.
