Vaccination Policy:
McMaster University has implemented the following vaccination policy:
- All individuals involved in the CDO’s OSCE examination (candidates, assessors, standardized patients, exam administration staff) are seen as visitors under this McMaster University policy. A visitor is defined as anyone who goes inside a building at any McMaster location for a consecutive 15minute period or for a total period of at least 1 hour during a 24-hour period.
- According to the current, recently announced McMaster policy, ALL VISITORS to the University are now required to download and use the McMaster Safety App and to use the app to upload and provide proof of FULL COVID-19 vaccination. FULL COVID-19 vaccination status is applied to individuals where 14 or more days have passed since they received either the second dose of a two-dose COVID-19 vaccine or their first dose of a one-dose COVID-19 vaccine series.
- This proof must be uploaded at least one hour before the first time you attend a McMaster location. As a result of this policy, all exam candidates and exam personnel are required to download the app and upload proof of FULL COVID-19 vaccination before your first attendance at the exam location. As a candidate, it is your responsibility to ensure that you have met this requirement before arriving to register for the CDO OSCE examination. You will be required to confirm that you have met this requirement at the time you first register for the examination (Day 1 of the exam).
- If you are not vaccinated or have only been partially vaccinated, this policy prohibits you from attending the CDO OSCE examination. There are no exemptions from this policy. Consequently, if you are unvaccinated or partially vaccinated and are registered as a candidate you will not be permitted to take the examination at that time. You may also request a full refund of your Examination Registration fees with no administrative penalty.
- This policy is implemented by McMaster University and any visitors to their campus must abide by this policy.
- The College only has access to the information posted publicly by McMaster University on its website. You may direct questions you have regarding this policy and using the McMaster Safety App to McMaster University’s Human Resources Services by phone (905-525-9140 ext 222-HR) or email (hr.mcmaster@mcmaster.ca).
COVID-19
Due to the unpredictable nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and the changes in government directives that can be brought to bear in response to changes in the character of the pandemic, the College reserves the right to change, cancel or amend any examination dates.
COVID-19 Precautions and Measures
The College has developed a comprehensive COVID-19 Safety Plan for the Qualifying Examination.
