The Health Education Center (HEC) has been granted full accreditation from the Society for Simulation in Healthcare (SSH). This accreditation is considered the gold standard in health care simulation, signifying an institution’s excellence in this increasingly critical component of health education.
This distinction makes UTMB the first institution in the University of Texas System to achieve this distinguished level of accreditation. UTMB joins the top 10 percent of simulation centers in the U.S. that have met the SSH’s rigorous standards in the areas of Core, Teaching/Education, and Assessment.
Congratulations to the HEC leaders and staff on this outstanding achievement.
