Simulation-based learning is transforming the way practitioners are trained and how therapists can develop. This session explores how simulation can enhance applied skills, professional judgement, and confidence in applied therapy settings. Drawing on recent examples from sports therapy and interdisciplinary education, it discusses practical implementation strategies, staff development, and how simulation is a tool beyond the classroom.

• Evaluate the role of simulation in enhancing decision-making, reflective practice, and practitioner readiness across diverse therapeutic settings.
