Virtual Simulations Training Center
Virtual simulations allow learners to gain practical experience without actually being in a professional field setting. The Virtual Simulations Training Center, located in 213A Education Building, is being used by numerous instructors to allow authentic application of course content. Classes can use simulations in-person or remotely through Zoom.
Our list of Virtual Simulation Current Offerings describes the simulations we can offer with a short amount of lead time. With more planning time, we can customize a simulation for you.
If you are interested in utilizing one of our Current Offerings, email projectimpact@bgsu.edu. Please note that approximately 4 weeks lead time is needed for simulation development.
