CNM's Simulation Center for Advanced Training and Education (Sim CATe) program provides innovative, high-fidelity simulation covering all age ranges. CNM has multiple simulation manikins of different ages, including birthing, newborn, pediatric, and adult. We use CAE's LearningSpace system to record simulations both in the labs and outdoors. 

CNM commits to providing a safe, non-threatening and rich simulation environment for teaching, enhancing, and assessing knowledge, skills, and behaviors of learners through experiential (learning by doing) experiences. 

We also provide custom contract training for those wishing to develop effective training programs for their employees. 

Our simulations cover a wide range of medical conditions and trauma.The team strives to create realistic moulage and settings for our simulations.
