PASS REQUIREMENTS

​

A pass will be awarded where a candidate obtains a pass score in 10 or more of the 14 assessed stations.

​

A fail will be awarded where a candidate obtains a pass score in nine or less of the 14 assessed stations.

​

Key steps

​

Typically in each station, there will be between two and five key steps that a candidate is expected to demonstrate. These are marked as ‘observed’ or ‘not observed’.

​

Domains

​

Typically, there will be between three and five assessed domains in each station. The candidate performance on each separate domain is rated on a seven-point scale. There is no pass/fail point for these ratings.

​

​

THE GLOBAL RATING

​

Finally the examiner makes a global rating of the candidate’s overall ability on the station, again on a seven-point scale. The global rating takes into account the predominant assessment area of the station as well as all aspects of the candidates’ performance as demonstrated in the station.

​

The global rating alone determines the pass/fail performance on the station. A score of three or below constitutes a fail score, and four or above constitutes a pass score (in the global rating only)
