There is no better way to learn than through hands-on experience. For the medical community, this means training in a bio-skills lab. However, professional time constraints, travel restrictions and space limitations can sometimes make it impossible. Not one to shy away from a challenge, the OLC Education and Conference Center set out to provide the ideal setting for physician learning, teaching and training in a convenient and mobile environment.

Introducing the OLC mobile training lab. Our mobile lab is custom built to recreate an authentic bioskills training laboratory. Completely self-contained, physicians can arrive, gown up, and immediately start practicing simulated procedures in a safe training environment.

What’s inside our mobile lab?

  • 1,100 sq. ft. of “real-world” simulated operating room space
  • 6 multiple training stations
  • Bioskills procedure tables
  • Surgical grade instruments
  • Gowning rooms
  • C-arm imaging systems
  • Integrated audio and visual capabilities
  • WiFi
  • Tool washing and sterilization equipment
  • Self-contained power generation and water and waste containment
  • Specimen management and storage

The mobile lab would not be complete without the experienced OLC team of lab managers and coordinators, who work hard to ensure that events in the mobile lab are as seamless and successful as events in our on-site world-class clinical setting.

This mobile option expands our reach and offers new opportunities for physicians, surgeons and medical professionals from around the world to develop and advance surgical skills.
