ATI understands the importance of simulation in developing practice-ready nurses. In support of this year’s theme, “Be a champion of your success story,” we encourage you to take pride in your efforts to advance nursing education with simulation! You play a crucial role in creating tomorrow’s practice-ready nurses.
ATI’s team of simulation experts creates cutting-edge, award-winning simulation tools for nursing education. These tools help nursing students practice their skills in a safe environment until they feel confident in their techniques, as well as their ability to handle difficult conversations with clients and colleagues.
Scroll down to see the variety of sim tools available to help you support your nursing students’ success!
Session: "Championing simulation for assessment of clinical competence" (1 contact hour)
Simulation expert Christine Heid, PhD, RN, CNE, CHSE, will present an exclusive session on how simulation-based learning can help you assess students’ clinical healthcare competencies. Guided by the Healthcare Simulation Standards of Best Practice, you’ll discover the importance of measuring observable behaviors that are essential to the development of clinical judgment and practice readiness. Join the discussion of evidence-based evaluation methods as you consider opportunities for using simulation to assess necessary competencies.
Outcomes and key discussion points are described on the registration page.

Simulations from ATI
Looking to take classroom learning a step further? Or maybe you want to help your students be more prepared for clinicals? Do you need to replace lost clinical hours? ATI provides nursing programs with screen-based simulations rooted in realistic scenarios and packed with decision-making opportunities.
Students build critical thinking, clinical reasoning, and clinical judgment skills as they make decisions that directly impact client care and outcomes via unfolding video scenarios.
Live-actor video scenarios allow students to exercise clinical judgment skills as they form and articulate a plan of care, hear an expert response, and complete a self-reflection.
Nursing students perform health assessments via 15 learning modules of interactive content that cover all major body systems. This deep learning helps them build their clinical judgment skills.
A realistic EHR charting experience gives students the opportunity to chart electronically in simulations, clinical, and the classroom. Faculty can implement 100+ prebuilt patient charts.
Students gain crucial experience through realistic, challenging scenarios that help them build critical skills in professional communication, leadership, and professionalism.
Simulated scenarios feature virtual characters who provide practice in resolving conflict in peer-to-peer and student-to-preceptor conversations — a major focus of fostering civility.
Students master 180+ essential nursing skills from the convenience of an online skills lab. Learning modules deliver step-by-step demonstration videos, checklists, animations, and more.
Interactive learning solutions — designed to replace textbooks — provide an all-encompassing virtual experience focused on community and public health, fundamentals, mental health, and adult medical-surgical.
600+ unfolding screen-based scenarios cover all major clinical areas.
Diverse client scenarios challenge students to practice prioritization and delegation to develop clinical judgment skills.Want to learn more about simulation in nursing education? Dig into these recent blog articles.
