Dear Friends and Colleagues,
A sincere and warm welcome to you all; we are looking forward to welcoming spring this month, which also means we are only 100 days away from SESAM Paris 2017, 14th – 16th June.
SESAM 2017.
We are very excited to share the new insights on simulation, knowledge and simulation experts from all over the world with you in June.
We would like to thank you for all your abstract submissions. We have had over 200 abstracts submitted and have now started the reviewing process. Once reviewing has been completed you will be invited to log in to see the status of your abstract.
During SESAM 2017 we will collaborate with some of our affiliated partners; Société Francophone de Simulation en Santé (SoFraSimS), International Paediatric Simulation Society (IPSS) and SimGHOSTS.
We have made sure that our social programme is bustling this year in Paris and have arranged several optional tours, including a city tour and a visit to Montmartre. Please click below to see more information about the tours and don’t forget to book onto them when you register.
We are also delighted to invite you to join us for a unique and unforgettable experience with the chance to enjoy the best views over the city of Paris by night, at our SESAM 2017 Gala Dinner which is being held in the Eiffel Tower. Please click below to see more information about the Gala Dinner and don’t forget to book your place when you register.

We are pleased to announce three of our invited speakers who will share their knowledge and experiences in their presentations. Prof. François Taddei (invited speaker for the Lou Oberndorf Lecture), Vinay M. Nadkarni MD, MS, FCCM, FAAP, FAHA and Leslie Graham RN, MN.
Advances in Simulation (AIS)
AIS is the official journal of SESAM; it provides a forum to share scholarly practice to advance the use of simulation in the context of health and social care.
Part of SESAM’s mission is to encourage and support the use of simulation in healthcare for the purpose of training and research; we are happy to learn about and publish the results of your research via AIS.
We kindly invite you all to visit the Journal's webpage, to read the valuable articles relevant to simulation, as well as submitting your own manuscripts to be reviewed and published.
Accreditation
SESAM accreditation programme offers you the oppourtunity to demonstrate your institution's quality.
With this programme an institute can be judged and validated by an independent body, internationally recognised as an opinion leader in the domain of simulation-based education in healthcare. The use of the "Accredited by SESAM" Logo is a quality marker which will allow your institution to stand out and further underline its high quality standards.
You can access more detailed information on our web page
Affiliations
SESAM is always aiming to intensify collaborations with Simulation Societies from all around the world.
We believe that these affiliations help expand the network of collaborating simulation societies. We would like to announce two of our affiliated partners' annual meetings:
International Paediatric Simulation Society (IPSS): IPSSW2017- 9th International Pediatric Simulation Symposia and Workshops
Association of Standardized Patient Educators (ASPE): 2017 Annual Conference - 16th Annual Conference of ASPE
Simulation Centres
Simulation Centre Networking Project: Our new simulation application is now available via our website.
Which is helping provide communication with simulation enthusiasts and information sharing between simulation centers through an updated list of simulation centres in Europe.
We have also welcomed 1 new Simulation Centre this month:
