Summary:Simulation fellowships are 1- to 2-year posts during which intensive training and experience occur. Making the most of opportunities presented during this short time is essential. This paper describes methods for maximizing such opportunities based on the collective experience of previous simulation fellows and supervising faculty. These are organized within four categories: (1) expectations and feedback (clarify the fellowship objectives, have an organized approach, work effectively with your supervisor, ask for feedback), (2) simulation activities (learn how to design simulation activities, learn how to develop simulation activities, curate a collection of resources), (3) scholarship (get involved in research, present and publish projects, undertake a qualification, network and collaborate) and (4) professional development (develop your professional identity, maintain clinical skills, continue the simulation journey). These tips may aid the professional development of simulation fellows and assist mentors in providing support to fellows.
