Best Online OPRA Coaching Centre in Australia & New Zealand
The OPRA (Overseas Pharmacist Readiness Assessment) exam will test your readiness and understanding of pharmaceutical sciences. Passing it confirms that you know enough to practise safely and effectively in Australia and New Zealand.
It ensures that pharmacists trained overseas meet the necessary standards to practice as registered pharmacists in Australia and New Zealand. Passing this exam is a crucial step towards gaining provisional registration as a pharmacist in both countries.
The OPRA exam is a computer-delivered, multiple choice question exam.
Candidates pursuing the Australian path are eligible to sit for the OPRA exam without having to pass the language exam. However, before beginning an internship, you must pass both the OPRA and the language exam (OET, PTE, IELTS).
We offer mentoring until the candidate passes the exam. Our institution also assists candidates in obtaining internship placement in Australia as well as employer sponsorship for 494 and 407 visa applications.
