Simulation: A Powerful Tool for Training Professional Skills in Cleanrooms

Abstract

This study presents the conception of a simulator for training and evaluating workers that are going to enter and operate in a cleanroom. First, this article explains the pedagogical engineering process developed in order to conceive this pedagogical tool. Second, it describes the scientific protocol designed to test the efficiency of the simulator. A comparative study has been done in order to verify the influence of training via the simulator on the performance in real life. The preliminary results seem to confirm a better efficiency of the simulator compared to a traditional training program.
