Schedule a Session

The Kanbar Center accommodates simulation activities for all four UCSF schools and the physical therapy program. We recommend that you contact us as far in advance as possible to schedule your sessions.


Important information to know:

  • All programs require faculty support and a faculty member has to be present during all sessions.
  • New programs require individual consultation to ensure that we can best meet your needs.
  • We strongly encourage scheduling a pilot run for all new programs, especially if you are developing new scenario-based simulations.
  • We have a priority scheduling system based on various factors, including type of program, number of learners, interprofessional nature of program and effective/efficient use of Kanbar space.
  • We offer curriculum development support, scenario templates and sample assessment tools through the collaborative learning environment.
  • All tours need to be pre-scheduled, and opportunities for tours are limited. 
  • Sessions can only be scheduled during normal business hours, Monday-Friday 8am-5pm.
