SIMPL (Society for Improving Medical Professional Learning) is a non-profit international consortium focused on advancing an evidence-based educational system in medicine. The software's core is an open-source component of the SIMPL Platform, which is used by over 400 training programs and thousands of medical educators globally. The platform is designed to make feasible the implementation of workplace-based assessments (WBA), including the assessment of Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs), at scale.
The core value proposition is Feasible Assessment, with SIMPL evaluations taking an average of 15 seconds to complete by both faculty and trainees, allowing them to fit into any clinical workflow. Key modules include SIMPL OR (for procedural tasks) and SIMPL Bedside. The platform provides a Reports Dashboard with cutting-edge analytics and useful visualizations to drive trainee improvement and help program leadership.
SIMPL is a HIPAA-compliant organization, ensuring the secure management of sensitive trainee data. The open-source nature allows for self-hosting and community contribution, while full access to the SIMPL Network, shared data, and full-service support is available through a program or institutional membership.
