ASPiH Standards for Simulation-Based Education (SBE)
The Association for Simulated Practice in Healthcare (ASPiH) created the Standards for SBE to combine relevant best practice and published evidence in simulation-based education for all healthcare professionals with consideration of a number of existing quality assurance processes currently in use across the UK and around the world.

'The ASPiH Standards provide a strong backbone in the description and clarification of the required standards. I am happy to tell that again I found valuable help in your framework'
