PCS announced today a landmark agreement with The Colleges and Institutes of Canada (CICan) and Simulation Canada that will bring PCS Spark access to thousands of Canadian EMT and nursing students as part of the Virtu-WIL project. In accordance with the agreement, PCS will develop, in coordination with educators across Canada, innovative digital patient scenarios that leverage the latest in AI technologies.
