Simulated participants are all ages and come from a wide range of backgrounds. Some have been patients or carers in the past, others are professional actors.

Can I become a simulated participant?
You don’t need to have any experience working as a simulated participant. We work with all kinds of people with different experiences but all with a positive approach and a willingness to make a difference in the Australian healthcare system.
We train you and prepare you for your role
We understand the importance of properly preparing simulated participants; both for their benefit and for the benefit of the students they will work with. We provide you with the necessary training and ensure you are adequately equipped to undertake the role required.
"It was a most interesting encounter with so many talented people from whom we have so much to learn. It was a most professional presentation. Congrats to you and your team."
