Duties include, but are not limited to:

Use a “state-of-the-art”, Learning Management System. Primary Tasks will include operating the LMS & A/V solution that will be used to view and evaluate learner performance during training and simulation events.
• Provide analysis of team performance during pre and post simulated conditions to establish correlation between pre- and post-performance. Contractor shall utilize, complete, collect and track simulation evaluation tools.
• Assist with development, data collection, data analysis, and administration of all pre- and post-simulation scenarios.
• Prepare training environments, operate simulation equipment/assets, and recover equipment and environment for scheduled training and upon request by USAFSAM Staff.
• Conduct orientation to the simulation equipment and environment and provide overview of the human patient simulator.
• Assist in the management and support daily operations of the simulation training program.
• Assist in the development of simulation program validation metrics.
• Work cooperatively with the applicable program analysis, course curriculum advisors, course program director, IM/IT, medical logistics, and site simulation center leadership to identify operational needs. Based on these identified needs, the contractor shall develop recommendations to address simulation/course shortfalls.
• Assist the program course director during the patient simulation scenario review process.
• Develop and provide training, safety and maintenance materials appropriate to the operation of all simulation equipment as directed by the Simulation Program Coordinator or as warranted by operational necessity.
• Attend all strategic planning meetings and teleconferences, as well as meetings and conferences for the purpose of improving the patient’s simulated course experience and delivery of course content.
• Assist and provide guidance to simulation center set-up and shall provide consultative assistance to program course management regarding future site expansion, as well as high-fidelity HPS recommendations.
• Ensure that simulation education, program key elements, and learning objectives are considered, and shall ensure simulation training outcome measurements meet course and skill sustainment requirements.
• Be responsible for reporting needs regarding simulation supplies & equipment in support of course training scenarios targeted to meet identified learning objectives.
• Operate simulation equipment, task trainers, computerized Hi-fidelity simulators, and virtual reality procedural trainers individually or in combination with the ability to follow legitimate medical aspects of scenarios and shall make appropriate adjustments based on participant actions or inactions as needed.
• Create troubleshooting documents, simulation checklists, and simulation lesson plans/scenarios for simulation equipment. These products will be forwarded to the program course director for review.
• Support USAFSAM simulation research projects within the capacity of contractor PWS.
• Assist with train-the-trainer activities and basic equipment troubleshooting items for the purpose of training additional cadre members.
• Participate in operational exercises which provide valuable professional development through travel opportunities and firsthand exposure to CCAT mission operations.
