Qpercom is a great company to work with. They are so attentive and focused on ensuring their clients are happy with their product. We used the video integration solution and piloted with one of our national recruitments, running a 4-station interview pilot. Multi-station interviewing has many advantages including decreased bias within an interview, which is really important to us.
We had really positive feedback from both the interviewees and interviewers using the system. Our administration team is keen to use the system again. Qpercom were on hand every step of the way. Looking forward to running more pilots in the next few months.
We administer 18 OSCEs per year and have never considered using anything but a digital solution.
We are grateful for the ability to discuss borderline students at an examiner session immediately after the OSCE. This allows for in-depth discussions and quality assurance of scores and grading decisions.
The ability to cut and paste the relevant data directly from the raw-data view into an excel-sheet is a crucial feature that allows for in-depth analysis and to combine results from other assessments.
Have never run into any scalability issues even though we have used the OSCE module for more than 12 years. Immediately after finishing grading, we use the built-in feature to send out individual score-sheets to students which include the assessor comments. It is much appreciated by the students to receive this feedback.
The OSCE assessment system is intuitive to use for the assessors, provides continuous quality assurance during the delivery of the test, and facilitates post-test discussions including discussions about borderline test-takers.
Qpercom provides us with a reliable platform to execute our OSCEs & MMIs.
Delivering our OSCE's with Qpercom ensures our assessments are accurate and reliable. The advanced analysis produces cut scores from BLR. This feedback analysis enables the release of student results from the system, which provides accuracy and confidence in our data. These options significantly reduce the resource time required to perform these tasks.
Processing of exam results is a much more efficient process thanks to Qpercom.
We can also gather data and feedback from the examiners. The examiner feedback can be released to students which is a great learning experience for the student. We really like the option of sending feedback to students. It's quick and easy to do.
We have found Qpercom as a business very responsive to our queries and suggestions.
Reliable, accurate & useful system for both the assessment teams and the students.
Qpercom has been a vital component of the UCD undergraduate psychiatry assessment since May 2014, proving to be both efficient and user-friendly. Our multiple examiners have consistently found it effective in reducing human error in scoring and facilitating seamless note-taking and student feedback.
The software offers live OSCE results, real-time data access, and automatically calculates validity scores (e.g., Cronbach’s Alphas) per station, ensuring robust standardisation through question banking and randomisation. Its ISO27001 accreditation guarantees the highest security standards required for any examination process.
We highly value the ongoing support from the Qpercom team, who provide prompt assistance during exams and collaborate closely with us for discussions and system upgrades. With their support, we successfully conducted Ireland's first fully online OSCE during COVID-19, earning recognition at the Irish Healthcare Awards by being nominated for Best Use of Information Technology.
Given our positive experience, we remain committed to using Qpercom for our assessment needs.
At the University of Galway we have had the privilege of working closely with Qpercom since its establishment in 2008 and we have been using their innovative assessment solutions for several years now.
Qpercom has transformed how we conduct our OSCE examinations by enhancing efficient management of assessments running concurrent across multiple sites, supporting realtime observations minimising non-student variation, enhancing the quality of clinical assessments through Qpercom robust reporting functionality and providing timely student feedback through spidergrams.
The team at Qpercom has consistently provided excellent technical and logistical support to meet our clinical assessment needs.
We highly recommend Qpercom to any institution seeking a software system to support effective delivery of OSCEs and guide clinical assessment quality improvement.
Since using Qpercom Observe, our OSCE examinations have changed enormously. We have been able to observe everything in real time, which allows us to fix any issues immediately.
We are very pleased with the product and with the Qpercom team and highly recommend Qpercom Observe to any institution considering using a digital scoring platform.
