      ab: To successfully respond to the increasing needs and demands of clients, social workers must be equipped with a broad range of knowledge and skills. Due to limitations with traditional in-person methods, the field is considering virtual simulations to enhance students' knowledge and competency-based skills. Virtual simulations are a method of using a computer/software/the Internet to teach knowledge and competency-based skills. In this article, we examine the different types of virtual simulations, categories of educational topics and competency-based skills that these virtual simulations address, and evidence of their usefulness. Initial findings suggest that these online learning modalities may not only be effective at teaching knowledge and competency-based skills, but that they may bridge a gap that exists in traditional teaching methods.
