The following required coursework must be approved to pass clinical training:

• Three reflection notes of 1,500 words (+/- 10%)*
• Individual practical test in the simulation and skills centre at OsloMet
• Submitted and signed clinical training document.

* If the student takes driving training in PMEDPRA30, he/she only needs to submit two reflection notes of 1,500 words (+/- 10%).

The student has up to two attempts to have the written and practical coursework requirements approved. If a written assignment is not approved, the student must rework it and submit it again. If the practical test is not approved, it must be submitted again. If the first attempt fails, the student will receive individual feedback and advice on what needs to be improved in order for the course requirement to be approved. The clinical practice placement will be registered as failed if the second attempt at meeting a written or practical course requirement fails. This counts as one (1) attempt at passing the clinical practice placement.

Part 1) Assessment of clinical practice placement. The minimum attendance requirement for the placement period is 90%. For more information about the attendance requirement, see ‘Assessment of placement in the ambulance service’ in the main section of the programme description. 

Part 2) Emergency vehicle driving test, theoretical and practical test in driving emergency vehicles organised by the Norwegian Public Roads Administration. The theoretical test must be taken before the practical test, cf. Section 2 of the Emergency Vehicle Regulations.

Students must pass both the clinical training (Part 1) and the emergency vehicle driving test (Part 2) in order to pass the course. If a student fails one part of the course, he/she must retake the part in question.

Pass/fail.
