A unique CRM training

SimFlying's Crew Resource Management training is a unique and essential continuing education for healthcare professionals who want to optimize communication and human factors in their work. In this classroom-based course, participants will become aware of the crucial human factors that underlie errors and learn effective communication, behavioral skills and professional conduct using lessons from the aviation industry.

Our CRM training is not boring! No role-playing, but realistic scenarios in which you learn to communicate, anticipate and collaborate under pressure.

You train in a real flight simulator together with pilots and healthcare professionals. A perfect combination to learn from the lessons of aviation applied to healthcare.

The training is suitable for all healthcare professionals who want to learn more about collaboration and communication. This applies to both acute care and non-acute care. 

Crew Resource Management originally originated in aviation. Here, CRM principles are used today in both stressful situations under high (presentation) pressure and during "quiet" moments. We explain this in our training!

No! You don't have to prepare for the training. Of course you can! That's why we send optional preparation in advance to dive into the subject matter. Both related to CRM, and the basics of flying. 

The training consists largely of practical cases in our flight simulators. However, we start the day with a number of short presentations and videos to ensure you are well prepared to enter the simulators! 

An indication of the program is download here.

SimFlying has two professional flight simulators and an air traffic control station. In the case studies, we divide the group over the different stations, each with its own role. From pilot to air traffic controller and radio operator, everyone is actively involved in communicating and working together. 

Of course we are not going to reveal the content of the case studies, so we will keep that a secret until you follow the training with us in Aalsmeer!

Yes, we have already received several professional groups, staff boards and partnerships that have booked our Crew Resource Management refresher course as a retreat day.
