At the beginning of the day the participants will have an opportunity to hear form an RCPsych CASC examiner and to discuss the difficulties of passing CASC exam. Steps of developing a CASC mark scheme will be discussed. Rather than a mock examination, participants will work in a small group with a facilitator and a CASC examiner. The course will be delivered in the format of video-consultation style scenarios that reflect examination timing. Through practicing online CASC stations with trained actors, watching others do the same as active observers, and reflecting on the process, participants will have the opportunity to develop their skills in this new online setting. Stations will be followed by structured feedback from our experienced faculty and there will be opportunities for peer feedback.
- To develop history-taking, examination, patient management and communication skills for those planning to sit the CASC examination.
- To improve confidence in undertaking the CASC examination in an online setting.
- To be aware of the important elements of the marking scheme for CASC examination.
