The National Simulation Technician Awards 2026 celebrate the skill, creativity, and dedication of simulation technicians across healthcare, education, and industry.
Often working behind the scenes, simulation technicians are the backbone of high-quality simulation. From designing immersive learning environments and maintaining complex technology, to supporting faculty and ensuring psychological safety for learners, their impact is felt every day—but rarely recognised.
These awards aim to change that.
The 2026 awards will shine a national spotlight on individuals and teams who go above and beyond to support learning, innovation, and patient safety through simulation. Whether it’s technical excellence, innovation, leadership, collaboration, or outstanding contribution to a service, these awards recognise the people who make simulation possible.
