Health Equity of Standardized Patients Course

The CAPE (Center for Advancing Professional Excellence) and the University of Colorado offer a Health Equity for Standardized Patients course. This unique three-day certification addresses the need for SPs to facilitate learner interactions that include feedback and portrayal of scenarios, incorporating health equity issues. These issues are now a part of most healthcare curriculums (i.e., Opioid management). After course completion, SPs are able to coach learners in recognizing health disparities and mitigating bias.
