English for Medical Professionals (OET) OET: An outstanding choice for health professionals! Course descriptionThis course prepares you for the Occupational English Test (OET). It follows the pattern of the OET and will help you to improve all four language skills: reading, writing, listening and speaking. The courses are suitable for medical professionals from non-English speaking backgrounds seeking to prepare for the Occupational English test, leading to professional registration in Australia. They are also suitable for registered medical professionals from non-English speaking backgrounds who wish to improve their language skills and communicate more effectively and confidently in English within a medical environment. . In addition, some professions (notably nursing) require recent graduates of non-English speaking background from Australian universities to pass the OET. OET is a profession-centered course, utilizing the language of specific health professions, and so may be a more natural test of English proficiency for overseas health professionals to use than IELTS. OET tests international health practitioners in the following 12 professions: [bt_columns][bt_column class="bt-column col-xs-12 col-sm-4 col-md-4 col-lg-4"] Dentistry Dietetics Medicine Nursing Occupational [/bt_column] [bt_column class="bt-column col-xs-12 col-sm-4 col-md-4 col-lg-4"] Therapy Optometry Pharmacy Physiotherapy Podiatry [/bt_column] [bt_column class="bt-column col-xs-12 col-sm-4 col-md-4 col-lg-4"] Radiography Speech Pathology Veterinary Science[/bt_column][/bt_columns] For more information on the OET test visit Occupational English Test website www.occupationalenglishtest.org [bt_accordion width="0" active_first="no" icon="chevron"] [bt_spoiler title="Who recognises OET?"] OET is recognised and trusted by more than 30 regulatory healthcare bodies and councils in Australia, New Zealand and Singapore.

[/bt_spoiler] [bt_spoiler title="Which is easier/ harder?" icon="list-alt"] If you experience as a health professional either in your country or in any other English speaking country or if you are currently studying for a health related diploma or degree, then there are many paybacks in doing OET as it will be specific to your profession and you can use your medical knowledge and vocabulary. LISTENING IELTS: 4 recorded monologues and conversations on general topic. Questions include: Multiple choice, short answer, sentence completion, form/ note/summary/flow chart/ table completion, labelling a diagram/ plan/ map and matching.Total Time: 30 minutes OET: 2 parts. Part A is a recorded consultation between a medical practitioner and a patient (dialogue). Part B is a lecture on a health topic (monologue).

(The key skill tested here is note-taking and once you master that, OET is not as hard as it seems at first.) Total Time: 50 minutes. READING IELTS: A variety of questions is used, chosen from the following types: multiple choice, identifying information, identifying writer’s views/claims, matching information, matching headings, matching features, matching sentence endings, sentence completion, summary completion, note completion, table completion, flow chart completion, diagram label completion, short answer questions.Total Time: 60 minutes OET: Part A: Summary reading task on a Health/medical related topic.
