Implementation of the formative OSCE program
The preparation of the training program required 16 h to develop the exercise scenarios and evaluation grids and 4 h to organize the logistics carried out by four senior doctors (one senior per sub-group). Completion of the training program required the involvement of two senior doctors for 20 min per student, per session (for conducting a short briefing, the OSCE station, and individual debriefing) plus 15 min of collective debriefing per session. No expenditure was associated with implementation of the program.
