Brought to you by PharmaConex, facilitated by Rachel Dungan (Pharmacist Coach and PRE-OSCE Assessor)
The Pharmacy PRE-OSCE has been described as ‘a rite of passage and ‘a nerve-racking marathon’. As an OSCE candidate,
- You are exposed to direct assessment by practicing pharmacists and actors simulating patients or healthcare professionals
- Your task is to correctly identify and solve a professional problem within the very tight time frame of 5 mins and repeat this 18 times within three hours

The aim of this webinar series is to support you as a PRE-OSCE candidate to optimise your ability to perform at your best so you can confidently showcase your professional competence during the PRE OSCE examination.
To optimise preparation, pharmacy intern tutors are invited (indeed encouraged!) to attend with their intern. Tutor Pharmacists can also record their attendance as CPD in their ePortfolio!
To perform at your best in these circumstances requires a specific type of preparation.
