Canada's Leading OSCE Prep Course
PharmAchieve is the leading provider of preparatory courses for the PEBC® OSCE exam. We have trained 7000+ candidates for the OSCE exam - more than any other organization. This means we have the most experienced instructors. And with more than thousands of enrollments a year from pharmacy graduates preparing for the PEBC ® we have the resources to continually develop our resources. We are known for our proven system of teaching and our results. Our students come from across Canada and overseas.

The Foundation: Our Faculty
Founded by Harvard-trained faculty and managed by a team that includes faculty members of Canadian universities, we are recognized for teaching excellence and innovative models which employ twice as many instructors as students (see lead instructor bios ). This provides outstanding personal attention and more practice with patients than available elsewhere.

We Closely Simulate The Real Exam
The video below features our lead OSCE instructor completing a case. It is filmed using the same actors, rooms and facilities as used for our courses. We use the same style and format as the real exam.
Exposure To Both Types Of Exam Cases
PharmAchieve exposes you to both types of stations found on the exam:
  • Interactive Stations - where a mock patient or healthcare professional presents a case that you must solve in 7 minutes while you are observed and graded by a licensed pharmacist; and
  • Non-Interactive Stations - where you are asked to check and documents errors such as those in prescriptions, labels or a Medical Administration Record (MAR).
OSCE Mock stations
The Most 1-to-1 Practice and Feedback
Our course maximizes practice with standardized patients. In addition to 40 to 60 cases completed in small groups, you complete a further 60 to 72 mock OSCE cases in private rooms (in facilities similar to the real OSCE), during which the pharmacist and patient are solely focused on YOU).
