Robust Features & Functionality
Case Simulators
Simulated lab scenarios
Prepare and assess your employees or students with medical laboratory simulations that test their analytical and identification skills.
Valuable feedback
Each simulator provides educational video summaries after every case assessment, featuring expert-led feedback and insights.
Mode-switching
Engage "test" mode for a challenge. Enable “review” mode to learn as you go and receive immediate feedback after each answer.
Exam Simulators
Interactive engagement
Simulate the real certification exam with computer adaptive testing on all exam simulators.
Expert materials
Create custom quizzes from 5,000+ questions built by program directors with 30+ years of teaching experience.
Robust reporting
Compare student scores by section and identify subject areas that require further review.
Case simulators
Use our extensive library of Case Simulators to assess competency in a wide range of lab procedures.
Every simulation includes built-in feedback and scoring designed to help staff learn, not just test—giving leaders confidence that staff competency translates to real-world performance.
CompassPlus provides unlimited access to our continually expanding simulator library, delivering all new cases and learning opportunities to your laboratory as they’re introduced.
