The OET (Occupational English Test) is an English-language exam designed specifically for healthcare professionals. It tests the English you must use safely and effectively in real clinical settings such as history taking, explaining diagnoses, and writing referral letters.

What is OET?

OET assesses your medical English communication skills, not general English like IELTS. It is accepted by medical councils, nursing boards, and regulatory bodies in many countries including Canada and the U.S. (UK, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Dubai, etc.).

Who should choose OET?

It is commonly required for:

  • Doctors

  • Nurses

  • Dentists

  • Physiotherapists

  • Pharmacists

  • Radiographers

  • Occupational therapists
