In order to register a new account, SPs are required to submit an Enrollment application form. If an application is approved, a user account will be created automatically for the admitted SP in the institution's CAE LearningSpace system.
SPs with an existing CAE LearningSpace user account can log in to the SPA Mobile app with their LS user account credentials.
For Standardized Patients
Download the CAE SPA mobile app from the Apple or Google Play store.
Sign-in
SPs can sign into their user account when they are connected to their institution's CAE LearningSpace server via a sign-in QR code.
The sign-in QR code is provided by institutions for SPs who are active users registered or enrolled in the institution's CAE LearningSpace user account.
SPs can be connected to only one institution at a time, but consecutively they can connect to every CAE LearningSpace system they are registered in using each institution's sign-in QR code.
Tabs
There are three main pages inside the SP Administration application:
Requests
SPs land on the Requests page after sign-in where they can view their appointment requests. Appointment requests for Sessions are invitations sent by SP coordinators to ask SPs if they are available at the specified time and date to perform the assigned scenario.
SPs receive request alerts every time they are invited to new appointments. The newest appointment requests that SPs haven't opened yet are highlighted.
Accepted Requests
SPs can find their pending and confirmed appointments on the Accepted Requests page.
Appointment requests become pending once the SP has accepted the appointment and is waiting to be confirmed for the scenario by an SP coordinator in charge,
in the SPA module of LearningSpace, with the Confirm option of the respective Case.
Pending requests become confirmed once the SPs are confirmed by the SP coordinator to perform the scenario.
Messages
SPs and their SP coordinators can exchange messages using the built-in chat of the SP Administration application.
- SPs receive in-app alerts about every new incoming message.
- SP coordinators can send direct messages to each confirmed SP from the Chat tab inside the SPA module.
- SP coordinators can also create a group chat including the confirmed SPs of a session or an entire cast sheet.
Further Options
Edit Profile
Providing optional information (e.g. certifications or consent to sensitive examinations) will help SPs appear more often in search results when SP coordinators are recruiting for scenarios.
SPs can manage their profile information at Edit Profile:
Profile information is divided into four subcategories:
Entering each subcategory, SPs can fill in or modify the following details:
SPs can return to the main page of their profile editor using the back arrow.

Personal Data: SPs can provide their contact details and certifications. They can also consent to sensitive examinations.
Physical Data: SPs can enter their demographical and physiological characteristics. SPs can also add customized information fields to their profile.
SPs registered through CAE LearningSpace can complete their profile - in case there is any data missing - through the Fill required fields page, after logging into the SPA Mobile app.
Medical History: SPs can enclose their real-life medical conditions that can affect their work as Standardized Patients.
