Practical Exam Prep

Mock PBA / OSCE Examinations

“....the closest experience that I ever got to the board exam, and I started to feel calmed down after finishing the workshop. I no longer get too anxious or too nervous when I’m surrounded by multiple examiners.” - Past Participant, Current RMT

"We talked about how to inform clinical impressions, and differential diagnoses, and how to assess, and working with all different types of conditions and coming up with treatment plans." - Past Participant, Current RMT

Clinical Reasoning

Select Assessments, Plan Treatments, and Develop Clinical Impressions

"We talked about how to inform clinical impressions, and differential diagnoses, and how to assess, and working with all different types of conditions and coming up with treatment plans.

I am overall definitely a better therapist because I took that course, and proud to say that I passed my board exams!" - Jennifer Hodge, RMT

Range of Motion Videos

Active, Passive, and Resisted Ranges, With and Without a Painful Presentation

"The ROM videos were so helpful while I was studying. Being able to review them at home made it easier to reinforce assessment principles and streamline my ROM assessments before the exam." — Past participant, now a BC RMT
