With huge excitement, I am pleased to start this update with the announcement of our new SSH Director of Certification, Rachel Araujo!

Rachel comes to us from SMT/Prometric, the test development and delivery company with which we have worked with since 2011. She has been our key point of contact and knows our certifications and exam development process — and has been involved in every stage.

Many of you know her already. For those who do not, she is a great addition to our staff and will take our certification programs into the next evolution — very exciting!

During the International Meeting on Simulation in Healthcare (IMSH ) in San Diego, the SSH Development Committee met for an in-person meeting to discuss the SSH Fund.

Wow! It’s hard to believe it’s already been a few weeks since many of us were on site together in San Diego for the record-setting IMSH 2024.

It’s no secret that people join associations for networking. 

True, education and access to resources also are key contributors. But, connecting with professional peers, joining niche solution groups, and learning from trusted individuals who express similar mission and purpose goals will always be near the top of any “reason for membership” list.

Thank you to everyone who attended and presented at IMSH 2024!

IMSH was one for the record books with over 750 presentations offered and our largest exhibit hall ever! If you attended IMSH 2024 and are missing any session scans please contact us at education@ssih.org and we’ll gladly get your transcript corrected.

Hello to you all, friends and colleagues.

Greetings from the Certification team!

Happy National Patient Safety Awareness Week, my simulationist friends and colleagues.

Greetings SSH Community!

I hope this message finds you doing well.

The enthusiasm and passion displayed by everyone who attended IMSH 2024 in San Diego truly inspired us all. It was an event that broke records and was memorable in numerous ways.

Happy American Heart Month, my simulationist friends and colleagues.
