OSHA requires "hands on" training with the actual type of machine the operator will be using, as well as classroom instruction that covers the ALL subjects outlined in OSHA 1910.178.
I fail to see how simulated operation will fill either of those requirements. simulation is not "hands on" nor will it be the actual type of equipment.
