The Emory Center for Experiential Learning (ExCEL) is located in the James P. Williams School of Medicine Building and includes both the Simulation Center and the Clinical Skills Center. The Center is a state-of-the-art facility encompassing over 15,000 square foot of educational space. ExCEL includes spaces for simulated participant experiences, low-tech task trainers, sophisticated human patient simulators, and virtual reality equipment for surgical techniques.
All ExCEL rooms have the capacity for direct and remote observation and recording. Much of the equipment is mobile allowing integration of experiential learning into the classroom and small group learning.
The Clinical Skills (OSCE) Center is used for simulated participant education, clinical skills education, physical diagnosis, assessment and other educational experiences. It contains four suites each of which contain a central debrief room with projection capability and 4 examinations rooms equipped with examination table and standard clinic equipment.
ExCEL is a resource for the entire School of Medicine. Currently, many of the school’s educational programs, residencies, fellowships, and faculty programs work with the Center staff to build robust simulation educational experiences.
