This three-session course has been developed by Chartered Psychologists specialising in interpersonal communication and is aimed at Wessex core and specialty doctors in postgraduate training (doctors) who are preparing for oral postgraduate exams.
There are several types of oral exam which doctors may encounter; including the VIVA, OSCE or the RCA exam for GPs. Each one requires a special focus on communication and presentation skills.
All doctors are encouraged to participate, as the course is suitable for those who have not yet sat exams, as well as those who have. Wessex trust and staff grade doctors are also encouraged to attend if places are available.
