Top 10 Simulation Cost Savings
- Ability to perform comprehensive training when live equipment is unavailable.
- Reduced cost of taking live, expensive equipment off-line for training purposes.
- Reduced accident costs of novice operators expensive equipment.
- Increased confidence and productivity of new operators during their first 60 to 90 days of operation.
- Reduced overall training time.
- Assess basic skills and hand-eye coordination and screen out poor operators before they begin the training program.
- Repetitively practice hazardous or life-threatening scenarios that would be dangerous and impractical to practice live. Military studies have shown that an operator doesn’t learn to respond naturally in a stressful situation until after 2,000 repetitions.
- Refresher training for a veteran operator to keep skills fresh during period when work opportunities on live equipment is not available.
- Measurement of all facets of student performance, including unsafe actions, operating proficiency and response to faults/malfunctions.
- Objectivity in administering uniform tests and conditions to all students.
