Practical examinations
The pre-registration practical examination comprises a series of Objectively Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs). Each OSCE station is designed to test the practical skills contained within the RCVS Day-One Skills for veterinary nurses.
Candidates rotate around a number of OSCE stations. Examinations are held three times a year.
Candidates for the pre-registration examinations can obtain further information on the OSCE stations by contacting the VN Examinations Manager on 0207 020 0782.
