Excelsior College and its partner, Polk State College, are collaborating to provide associate degree students an opportunity to learn and prove mastery of hands-on workplace skills in an online environment. We are seeking proposals for the development of simulations for this purpose.
Students in two-year technology programs will use simulations to learn skills and prove competency. In programs teaching using a blended learning model, students will be able to familiarize themselves with skills prior to lab practice, making their lab experience both safer and more efficient. Simulations may replace some lab practice. Following labs, simulations can again be accessed to refresh skills.
