Jason Konzelmann and Syretta Spears, from UCF’s Colleges of Medicine and Nursing, respectively, were honored for their significant contributions to simulation in healthcare education.
Jason Konzelmann and Syretta Spears, who direct clinical skills and simulation centers at UCF’s Colleges of Medicine and Nursing, respectively, are among 19 healthcare simulation experts from around the world inducted into the Class of 2025 Fellows of the Society for Simulation in Healthcare.
Fellowship is a lifetime achievement award to individuals who have demonstrated exceptional contributions to simulation in scholarship, education and service. Konzelmann and Spears received the honor during the International Meeting on Simulation in Healthcare (IMSH) last week in Orlando.
The Society for Simulation in Healthcare is the largest healthcare simulation in the world, with more than 5,000 members in 60 countries, but less than 150 experts worldwide have received fellowship distinction. Konzelmann and Spears join two other fellows at UCF, nursing professors Mindi Anderson and Desiree Díaz.
