SimCapture Cloud Remote OSCE allows learners to participate in clinical assessments remotely using a secure, browser-based platform. This guide walks you through everything you need to know to successfully complete your Remote OSCE exam.

Accessing Your Exam

• Go to the My Courses section in SimCapture.
• Click the Remote Exam: Learner link to enter the exam environment.
• If you are not assigned to a room, you will see a message:

"No exams available."

Before the Exam Starts

• You'll be prompted to preview and select your camera and microphone settings.
• Once the Proctor places you in a room, a message will appear:

"Please wait. Your remote exam in the room 'RemoteRoom 1' is about to start."

• You can recheck your camera and microphone settings before proceeding.

Starting the Exam

• When the Proctor opens the room, you'll see a Begin Exam button at the top of the page.
• Clicking this button starts the exam flow, which may include:
  • Honor Code
  • Door Note
  • Electronic Medical Record (EMR) (if applicable)

During the Exam

Your exam interface will display:

• The virtual room
• Your first and last name
• Time remaining in the encounter
• Video and audio feeds of you and the Standardized Patient (SP)
• The EMR, if applicable
• A Stop Encounter button to end the session

If an EMR is provided, it will be prominently displayed and accessible while viewing the video feeds.

After the Exam

• Once the encounter and any follow-up evaluations or recordings are completed, you'll return to the Remote Encounter Waiting Room.
• Your progress will be saved, and you can safely exit the session.
