The Clinical Performance Centre (CPC) is a simulated clinical environment that provides a safe learning space with opportunities for medical students to learn and practise their clinical skills using various simulators which include full-bodied manikins, vital signs simulators and part task trainers as well as Real and Simulated Patients (SP). 

The CPC is consists of  examination rooms that  are designed to look like consultation rooms and simulation laboratories that are designed to look like patient wards in the hospital setting.  All the rooms are equipped with audio-visual recording equipment. As it is vital that medical students acquire essential clinical knowledge and skills in a hands-on environment, the CPC is used to facilitate clinical skills teaching with SPs or real patients accompanied by faculty feedback at the end of each teaching session.  Simulated case scenarios using either full bodied manikins, SPs, or hybrid simulation using SPs with part task trainers are integrated in the curriculum. These allow the students to holistically approach each case applying their medical knowledge, history taking skills, physical examination skills, procedural skills and communication skills. Debriefing is also facilitated in the CPC which encourages the students to reflect and is conducted at the end of each simulation to optimise the students’ learning.   

The CPC is also used for assessment activities that are conducted for students in both formative and summative settings.
