We put the candidate at the heart of our approach – we have invested heavily in a brand-new Competence Test Centre which has been designed with the candidate experience firmly at heart. Our team are experts in their field – by using their diverse range of experience, we help develop the next generation of caring, compassionate and competent health professionals who place the patient at the centre of decision making by promoting dignity, care, and compassion.
We are situated in a great city with convenient transport links – Newcastle is consistently ranked as one of the best cities to visit in the UK.

We are keen to work with your organisation to understand your needs, your strategy and your requirements not just in terms of the Test of Competence but in terms of preparation, managing bookings, logistics and follow up.
