Clinical Simulation Technologist Programme (CSTP)

From Concept to Practice - Master the World of Healthcare Simulation Technology


Who is a Clinical Simulation Technologist?

A Clinical Simulation Technologist (CST) is the behind-the-scenes brain that makes medical training come alive. They create realistic clinical environments using high-fidelity patient manikins, simulators, virtual reality, medical equipment, and audiovisual systems.

Their work allows doctors, nurses, and students to practice life-saving skills safely—before they perform them on real patients.

You’ll find CSTs working in medical universities, hospitals, simulation centers, and training labs—blending technical expertise, clinical understanding, and creative problem-solving to improve healthcare education and patient care.


About the Programme

CSTP is an intensive 3-day training designed to fast-track your journey into the world of healthcare simulation.

You will gain hands-on skills in audiovisual systems, medical manikin operations, scenario setup, troubleshooting, and learning environment management—all essential competencies in today’s fast-evolving healthcare education landscape.

Whether you’re from a clinical, technical, or education background, this course equips you with in-demand, future-ready expertise to stand out in your career.
