Offering high-quality and purposeful simulation-based educational (SBE) activities to learners requires careful planning The aim of this abstract was to present the changes made to the Simulation Design Standard in comparison to its previously published version From 2019 to 2021, a group of simulation educators and researchers representing multiple specialities, simulation societies and geographic areas (the authors of this abstract) met regularly via a videoconferencing platform to review and revise the Simulation Design Standard based on their review of the latest literature and their individual experiences. The team identified several aspects that would benefit from being updated to make this key standard more explicit and applicable to all types of simulation modalities. Drafts of the standard were reviewed on multiple occasions by peer reviewers and the society’s leadership until the latest version was approved for publication.An updated version of the Simulation Design HSSOBPTM will soon be published by INACSL in the journal Criteria of the 2016 and 2021 HSSOBPTM for simulation designIt is expected that the revised Simulation Design Standard of Best Practice will be welcomed by healthcare educators and simulation technology developers. It has been designed as a guide to help educators in all the key aspects of designing SBE activities, irrespective of the modality employed. It should ultimately benefit all learners but also promote the continuing professional development of the healthcare educator with an interest in SBE. It includes an updated list of useful references readers can consult to find additional information.
