Simulation-based training (SBT) is commonly integrated into medical education. This panel examines current uses of SBT in undergraduate, graduate, and continuing medical education and addresses the advantages and different considerations for each. Furthermore, we consider how SBT within the different levels of medical education can inform practices across levels.
