Greetings from Papua New Guinea. At first I didn’t know where to start and how to approach the AMC MCQ exam. Since June 2023 when I started this sessions on AMC preparation the story is different now. The Two lecturers Namely, Dr Swapnil and Dr Udara are exceptionally committed and deliver well. The team is always available to answer to us anytime. They provide great support. I have not done the skill assessment yet, hoping to get that done this week and hopefully I will sit for the exam in November 2023.

About The PEBC Examination

What is the PEBC Exam?

The Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada (PEBC) exam is a series of competency-based assessments for internationally trained pharmacists who wish to work in Canada. The purpose of the exam is to ensure that internationally qualified pharmacists have the necessary knowledge to practise safely and effectively within the Canadian healthcare system. Once you clear this exam you can apply for a job, earn well, and get a PR Visa.

PEBC Exam Eligibility Criteria

To be eligible to write the PEBC Exam, a pharmacist must have the following:

  • Bachelor of Pharmacy (B.Pharm) or Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) degree, including provisional degrees.
  • BPharm/PharmD transcripts or consolidated mark sheets.
  • Active registration with the state pharmacy council in your home country as a practising pharmacist.
  • Valid passport.
  • Although not mandatory, any relevant working experience can be included.
Procedure for PEBC

1.  Document Evaluation

The initial phase involves an assessment of your educational and professional credentials. Successfully passing this evaluation is a prerequisite to move on to the next phase, which is the Pharmacist Evaluating Examination (PEE).

2.  The Pharmacist Evaluating Examination

Upon meeting the requirements of the document evaluation, you'll proceed to the Pharmacist Evaluating Examination. It serves as a pivotal step for internationally-educated pharmacists seeking licensure in Canada. 

Passing this exam is essential to qualify for the subsequent phase, which is the Pharmacist Qualifying Examination - Parts I (MCQ) and II (OSCE).

The final stage of your journey towards PEBC certification is the Pharmacist Qualifying Examination. Successful completion of both Part I (MCQ) and Part II (OSCE) of this examination signifies that you are now certified and officially registered with PEBC.
