Crediting Sim Time towards requirements for SFI?

Hi All,

Does anyone know if it would be possible to credit Simulator time towards the prerequisite requirement of 1500 Multi Pilot Flight time for the Synthetic Flight Instructor course? I understand simulator time is not flight time and I wouldn't log it as that. However, EASA FCL states Simulator time can be used for credit for further licenses and courses, however, I have only ever seen this applied to ATPL upgrade. Surely it would be reasonable to credit the simulator time towards a license that would allow you to instruct in the Sim, wouldn't it be reasonably relevant experience?

Best
