Outcome Based Assessment (OBA) Preparation Program

Outcome Based Assessment (OBA) Preparation Program

This program supports internationally qualified Registered Nurses (IQNs) who have successfully passed the MCQ examination and are preparing for the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) component of the OBA pathway. The training focuses on Australian clinical standards, safe practice, and professional communication through structured, simulation-based activities. Participants practise hands-on clinical skills in a simulated environment and receive guidance in managing OSCE-style scenarios commonly assessed within Australian healthcare settings.

Overview

This program is designed for internationally qualified Registered Nurses (IQNs) who have successfully passed the MCQ examination and are now preparing for the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) component of the OBA pathway.

The course focuses on Australian clinical standards, safe practice, and effective professional communication through simulation-based learning. Participants engage in hands-on clinical training replicating OSCE-style scenarios commonly assessed within Australian healthcare environments.

Training includes guided practice, feedback from experienced Clinical Facilitators, and supervised skill application across core areas such as patient assessment, infection control, medication safety, and clinical documentation. This program is ideal for nurses seeking structured, practical preparation to build confidence and competence ahead of their OSCE assessment.

Delivery & Duration

  • Simulation-based practical training delivered on demand
  • Sessions scheduled to align with individual OSCE preparation timelines
  • Additional supervised practice available based on learner progress and facilitator availability
  • Duration and session structure confirmed at enrolment

Who is this program designed for?
This program is intended for internationally qualified Registered Nurses who have passed the MCQ exam and are preparing for the OSCE component of the OBA pathway to AHPRA registration.

What does the training include?
The program includes structured simulation-based skill development, OSCE scenario practice, feedback from Clinical Facilitators, and guidance on Australian clinical standards and expectations.

How is the training delivered?
Training takes place in a simulated clinical environment, allowing participants to practise key skills under supervision and replicate OSCE-style assessment scenarios.

Can I enrol before receiving my MCQ results?
Participants should have passed the MCQ examination before commencing this program to ensure readiness for the OSCE stage of the OBA pathway.

How long does the program take to complete?
Duration varies depending on the participant’s learning needs and OSCE schedule. Session timing and frequency are confirmed during enrolment.

Is this course recognised by AHPRA?
This course is an independent preparation program designed to support OSCE readiness. It does not replace or modify AHPRA’s assessment process but equips participants with practical skills aligned with Australian clinical expectations.
