Tēnā koutou,

Not much to report this month so update is fairly brief.


Mini-CEX and CbD Assessment Forms

The Cultural Safety Case Based Discussion also now has an assessment form, and the instructions, assessment form and marking rubric have all been merged into one document which is also available through the Workplace-Based Assessments course on TalentLMS.

UCPEX Written & OSCE Exams

Please note that the UCPEX Written Exam will be held midyear next year, on Friday the 18th of June 2027. There are no currently no plans to have another UCPEX Written Exam in November 2027. The OSCE will remain in November each year.

Trainees on the pre-2024 training programme—particularly those aiming to complete their Fellowship by the end of 2027—should note that the written exam now takes place in June. Please plan accordingly and decide whether you will sit the exam in June 2027 or June 2028 to meet your intended Fellowship completion date.

Finally, good luck to the trainees for the upcoming UCPEX and OSCE this week! 


Ngā mihi nui,
