Dear Family Practice Physicians,
I am writing to invite you to participate as a Practice Examiner in our upcoming VIRTUAL series of R2 Practice Exam (practice SOO) sessions. The College of Family Physicians of Canada announced that the simulated office oral (SOO) component of the Certification Examination in Family Medicine will continue to be administered virtually for Spring 2023. FAQs on the SOO's can be found here.
At the Victoria site, we will endeavor to practice the SOO portion of the exam using ZOOM. We will be using the same familiar SOO practice cases, and will be using the same marking scheme as in the previously held in-person SOO practice events.
The schedule for the practice exam sessions will be: Feb 1, Feb 15, March 15, and 29, 2023 (1730 – 2000).
I am still looking for Examiners to assist with our VIRTUAL series of R2 Practice Exam (practice SOO) sessions on the following days:
- Feb 15 (1730 – 2000)– 4 Examiners needed
- March 15 (1730 – 2000)– 3 Examiners needed
- March 29 (1730 – 2000)– 4 Examiners needed
If you are interested in participating in a practice session, please let me know by responding to the Qualtrics survey by Sunday, February 15, specifying which date(s) you are available.
Remuneration for participation in each evening is $91.80/hour.
We can offer reimbursement for a meal up to a max of $30.00 in lieu of catering for the evening practices. Please submit your electronic receipt to Leanne Ruston for processing.
I will send you confirmation of your date(s) in an Email Meeting request which will include: Examiner Exam Prep guidelines (Zoom links etc.), Outline for the format for the evening, and a copy of your SOO Case for the session(s).
Thank you!
Leanne
