EMAC is a two-and-a-half-day high-fidelity simulation course run under the supervision of the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists (ANZCA). This course is specifically designed to improve your skill in both technical and non-technical aspects of anaesthetic crisis management.
The modules include:
Human factors
Cardiovascular Emergencies

Anaesthetists are welcome to ‘experience’ and manage clinical events in an intensive, safe and fun learning environment – SCPS is a high-fidelity dedicated simulation centre that runs a variety of undergraduate and postgraduate courses.
EMAC is taught by anaesthetists.  The participant group is made up of anaesthetists and anaesthetic trainees from NZ and Australia, we include anaesthetic technicians and nursing staff to help provide a realistic team environment and support growing a safety culture in our workplaces.

The Effective Management of Anaesthetic Crises (EMAC) Course is run at the Simulation Centre for Patient Safety (SCPS) at the Grafton campus of Waipapa Taumata Rau, the University of Auckland (opposite Auckland City Hospital).
