Answers for colleges, faculty and students

Six practical training platforms for health programs. ChartLab is a training electronic health record (EHR) where students practise EHR workflows. CodeLab is an ICD-10 coding practicum where students code patient records the way professional coders do. SQLLab is a health data SQL practicum where students query a hospital database. BedsideLab is a nursing clinical judgment practicum where students review patient charts and decide what to do. MotionSensesLab is a Block 2.1 Motion and Senses practicum where medical students work through neuroscience cases on patient charts, graded automatically. MindMotionLab is a Foundations of Medical Practice practicum where first-year medical students meet the person behind the patient: behavioural science, communication, Basic Life Support and limb anatomy on patient charts.

ChartLab suits courses on EHR use, health records and HIM operations. CodeLab suits medical coding and classification courses. SQLLab suits health informatics, databases and data analytics courses. BedsideLab suits nursing courses on clinical judgment, prioritization and NCLEX preparation. MotionSensesLab suits medical colleges teaching the Motion and Senses block (neurophysiology, hearing, balance and vision). MindMotionLab suits medical colleges teaching Foundations of Medical Practice (behavioural science, communication, professionalism, Basic Life Support and limb anatomy). Many programs use more than one; a college starts with ChartLab and can add CodeLab, SQLLab, BedsideLab, MotionSensesLab or MindMotionLab later.

No. One account works in every product the college has. Switch buttons in the header move between them without signing in again.

No. Every patient, provider, facility, document and database in every product is invented for teaching. Colleges are asked never to enter real patient information.

The screens and workflows are modelled on widely used systems such as OpenEMR and Epic, but ChartLab is built for teaching: every lab has a task list beside the chart, faculty see exactly what students entered, and all patients are fictional.

30 labs, each with a Word lab sheet and a faculty answer key, plus 22 patient records and data sets across two fictional facilities. See the full curriculum.

Yes. Faculty can edit any lab, task, document or patient record, and create new ones. Your changes are kept when the built-in content is updated.

No. Most labs follow two connected patient stories, which works well in sequence, but each lab has its own prepared record and can be assigned on its own.

Yes, as part of EHR work: ICD-10-CM codes on the problem list and from signed documentation, and CPT codes in charge capture and claims. For a full coding course, CodeLab goes much further.

Each assignment opens a fictional patient record in a hospital-style EHR. Students read the documentation, look up and verify codes in the code book, enter them in the Coding activity, complete the Word activity sheet and submit.

ICD-10-CM for diagnoses (the FY2026 code set) and ICD-10-PCS for procedures.

CodeLab includes the complete ICD-10-CM Tabular List with all its instructional notes, searchable by code or by words. Students locate terms in the Alphabetic Index of their own code book or textbook, then verify them in CodeLab. ICD-10-PCS codes are checked for a valid format; students verify them in the PCS Tables.

Automatic edits flag invalid codes, missing 7th characters, Excludes1 conflicts and principal-diagnosis errors as students work. They support learning; faculty still grade against the answer key.

30 activities, from orientation and ICD-10-CM conventions to chapter-specific, inpatient and ICD-10-PCS coding, audits and team billing. Each has a Word activity sheet, a faculty answer key and its own patient record. See the full curriculum.

Sometimes. When an online certificate program is open, it is shown on the CodeLab page with how to register.

Each assignment opens a fictional hospital database in the SQL Workbench, in the browser. Students explore the tables, write and test their queries, save one answer for each question, complete the Word activity sheet and submit.

The main one is a hospital EHR and billing database: 16 linked tables for nine months, with 195 patients, 383 encounters, ICD-10-CM diagnoses, procedures, lab results, medications, vital signs and claims. There is also an import batch with deliberate data quality problems, and an unnormalized clinic visit log for the normalization labs.

Each saved query is run on a fresh copy of the database and its result is compared with the answer key’s. Faculty see which answers match and why the others do not. Students see the results only when the faculty turn on practice mode, or once the work is graded.

No. Every run uses a fresh copy, so students can try CREATE, INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE freely; nothing they run is saved, and a query that runs too long is stopped.

Standard SQL as SQLite writes it, from SELECT, joins and grouping to subqueries, CTEs, window functions, views, data quality and normalization (1NF to 3NF). A SQL reference is one click away in the Workbench.

30 labs in six units, each with a Word activity sheet, a faculty answer key and auto-checked questions: 179 in all. Faculty can edit any lab, write their own questions or add their own databases. See the full curriculum.

Each assignment opens a fictional patient’s chart in a training EHR. Students start with the handoff report (they can read it or listen to it), review the chart like a nurse at the start of a shift, answer the clinical judgment items in the Activity tab, complete the Word activity and submit.

The Next Generation NCLEX styles: multiple choice, select all that apply, prioritize (put in order), matrix, drop-down (cloze), highlight the findings, bow-tie and open responses. Each item is tagged with the step of the NCSBN Clinical Judgment Measurement Model it practises.

Objective items are scored when students save: select-all and highlight items use +/- scoring (each wrong choice cancels a right one, never below zero), prioritize items earn a point for each option in the right place, and matrix, drop-down and bow-tie items a point per correct part. Open responses are graded by faculty with the model answers.

Students see their scores, the correct answers and the rationales only once their work is graded, or straight away if faculty assign in practice mode. Keys, rationales and model answers never reach students before then.

33 case-based activities in six units, with 228 items, 32 patient charts from a newborn to an 86-year-old, a student Word activity and a faculty answer key for each case. Review each key against current guidelines and your local policies before grading. See the full curriculum.

Each assignment opens a fictional patient’s chart in a training EHR. Students start with the handoff report, review the history, the examination tables and the results, answer the items in the Activity tab and click Submit for grading. Group practicals are shared by a team.

Automatically, the moment a student submits: objective items against the key (select-all and highlight with +/- scoring), and open responses against a rubric of key points. The student sees the grade, feedback naming any key points not yet covered, and the rationale for every item. Faculty can review any grade, change it, reopen the work, and download Excel grading sheets with item scores and an item analysis.

Each key point lists the terms that earn it; an answer earns the point when it contains one of them (“a & b” needs both). Matching ignores case, accents and punctuation and matches word beginnings. It rewards naming the right concepts, not the quality of the argument, so faculty should spot-check open responses, especially at first.

16 case-based activities in the eight units of Block 2.1 (12 individual and 4 group practicals), with 130 items, 16 patient charts from 5 to 78 years, a student Word activity and a faculty answer key for each case, and a course reference in every chart. Review the content against your course textbook and current guidelines before use. See the full curriculum.

Yes. Faculty build charts in a form, section by section, or fill one from a synthetic Synthea patient record, then write their own items and rubrics in the activity builder.

Each assignment opens a fictional patient’s chart in a training EHR. Students start with the handoff report, review the history, the person and the findings, answer the items in the Activity tab, complete the Word activity and upload it. Group practicals, such as the consultation role-play in threes, are shared by a team.

The nine units of Foundations of Medical Practice: body and mind, communication in the medical setting, changing health behaviour, lifestyle change, illness perception, adapting to illness, psychological care in the medical setting, becoming a good doctor (professional conduct and adult Basic Life Support), and the anatomy of the upper and lower limbs and the spine.

Objective items are scored against the key as students work (select-all and highlight with +/- scoring). Faculty grade the open responses with the model answer beside each one and return a grade with feedback; a suggested score from the objective items is shown. Faculty can download Excel grading sheets with item scores and an item analysis.

17 case-based activities in nine units (12 individual and 5 group practicals), with 134 items, 17 patient charts from 8 to 82 years, a student Word activity and a faculty answer key for each case, and a course reference in every chart. Review the content against your course textbook and current guidelines before use, in particular the Basic Life Support steps. See the full curriculum.

Add them one by one or import a class list. Each student gets a temporary password to share privately. In CodeLab, SQLLab, BedsideLab, MotionSensesLab and MindMotionLab you can also create a class code that students use to create their own account.

Yes. In ChartLab any assignment can be group work, with one shared workspace and one submission. In CodeLab, the billing activities are done in teams, in SQLLab the capstone, in BedsideLab any case can be team work, MotionSensesLab has four group practicals and MindMotionLab five; one grade can be given to the whole team.

In ChartLab you see the student’s entries next to each task. In CodeLab you see the completed activity sheet, the codes entered in the EHR with their edit results, and the answer key on one page. In SQLLab you see the activity sheet and every saved query with its check result, beside the key. In BedsideLab you see every answer beside the key and rationale, with a suggested score, and grade the open responses. In MotionSensesLab every item, open responses included, is graded automatically when students submit; you review and adjust. In MindMotionLab objective items are scored and you grade the open responses beside the model answer. In every product, you add feedback, can attach a marked document, and record the score.

In ChartLab, yes: staff can open a student’s workspace while the assignment is in progress, which helps when supporting students during a lab session.
