Background:

Objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs) are crucial for assessing veterinary and veterinary nursing/technician students' practical skills.
OSCEs serve formative and summative roles, influencing student progression and motivating skill development.
Effective implementation requires careful planning regarding resources, personnel, and assessment tools.

Purpose of the Study:

To provide a comprehensive guide with practical tips for running OSCEs for veterinary and veterinary nursing/technician students.
To assist institutions in establishing, improving, or expanding their use of OSCEs.
To address the resource commitments and requirements associated with OSCE implementation.

Main Methods:

Compilation of expert insights from an international group of authors experienced in running OSCEs.
Structured advice covering pre-OSCE, during-OSCE, and post-OSCE phases.
Review of requirements for faculty, staff, students, facilities, and animals.

Main Results:

Detailed recommendations for optimizing OSCE processes.
Guidance on managing the logistical and resource demands of OSCEs.
Strategies for enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of OSCE delivery.

Conclusions:

Implementing OSCEs requires significant resource commitment but offers substantial benefits for student learning and assessment.
Adopting best practices can improve the quality and impact of OSCEs in veterinary curricula.
This teaching tip serves as a valuable resource for institutions at all stages of OSCE adoption and refinement.
