Assessment of Clinical Skills

During the two (2) day Assessment of Clinical Skills participants will be evaluated on their performance of simulated dental procedures on supplied manikins in a clinical setting.

In order to participate in the Assessment of Clinical Skills, individuals must have received a minimum test equated score of 75 or higher on the Assessment of Fundamental Knowledge.*

It is not a requirement to successfully complete the Assessment of Clinical Skills to register for the Assessment of Clinical Judgement. The Assessment of Clinical Skills and the Assessment of Clinical Judgement may be taken concurrently.

Participants have the privilege of taking the Assessment of Clinical Skills twice.

 

* In order to assure the consistency of scores on all the versions of the Assessments, the NDEB uses a test equating/rescaling procedure.  This procedure correlates a standardized reference examination with the current version of the examination and determines the standardized mark.
