2015 was the 10 year anniversary of Practicum, and this has been celebrated by a number of activities and events during the year.
During the past year, which was the first year as an established multidisciplinary joint committee of the UEMS, NASCE has accredited six outstanding centres for medical simulation and clinical skills training.

In 2014, NASCE was announced at the ICOSET conference in Harrogate. NASCE is a European Union of Medical Specialists (UEMS) sponsored initiative to network and accredit skills centres within the European Union and its affiliates. With its origins in the surgical section of the UEMS, the NASCE project has grown since the planning phase in 2012.
During the past year, which was the first year as an established multidisciplinary joint committee of the UEMS, NASCE has accredited six outstanding centres for medical simulation and clinical skills training.
It is our impression that there is a great interest in NASCE accreditation not only in Europe but also beyond.
