Educational content available on SimStore includes: Scenarios Scenario packages and curricula Scenario support materials - Preparation - Debriefing guides and outlines - Descriptions of the case - Learning and performance objectives Images Videos Vocal sounds Additionally, organizations may purchase SimStore Points, in lieu of pre-identifying the scenarios they wish to purchase.

This can be a laptop PC or a SimPad. Every simulator has its own control device. Devices must be registered, or associated, with an organization s account prior to using them with SimStore. From the SimStore account, instructors can allocate or assign scenarios, and other content to particular devices that will be utilized to control simulators for the planned scenarios.
