CDC Offers CRC SimPLER 101 and 102 Trainings

Oct 12, 2022 | Beth Hess

CDC will offer the following live virtual trainings for CRC SimPLER (Community Reception Center Simulation Program for Leveraging and Evaluating Resources), a planning tool for public health emergencies. Health departments and emergency managers can use CRC SimPLER to present estimates about community reception center (CRC) capacity when planning and responding to radiation emergencies. The tool was developed based on user testing feedback from state, tribal, local, and territorial health departments around the country. Planners can use the easy-to-understand and interpreted estimates from the tool and the results of its scenario outputs comparison feature to discuss resource needs with decision makers.

  • CRC SimPLER 101: “Introduction to CRC SimPLER” will be held 1:00-2:00 PM ET on Thursday, October 13. This training will provide an overview of community reception centers and the CRC SimPLER tool and provide a demonstration of SimPLER with input from participants on what inputs and scenarios they would like to see and to gain experience in using CRC SimPLER.
  • CRC SimPLER 102: “Intermediate Planning with CRC SimPLER” will be held 1:00-2:00 PM ET on Monday, October 17. This training will provide participants with opportunities to engage in hands-on activities to adapt models based on their own CRC plans. Participants are encouraged to review their CRC plans prior to the training. This training will also cover how to request custom modelling from the SimPLER team.

After registering for each session, participants will receive a confirmation email with the login information to join the training.

Those with questions prior to the training or who would like to schedule a separate session for their jurisdictions should contact [email protected]. Access CRC SimPLER.
