ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

The COVID-19 pandemic lockdown precluded face-to-face final Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCE) in the UK.

RESULTS:

In response, we rapidly developed and then successfully implemented a novel Virtual Objective Structured Clinical Examination (VOSCE).

CONCLUSIONS:

In this article we both describe and reflect on our experience as well as discuss the implications for future undergraduate assessment as the situation evolves.
