While the questions you’ll be asked will be different to those in our previous closed book examinations, the OBE needs preparations. You will be presented with a scenario that describes a realistic workplace and situation. You will then be asked to carry out a series of tasks using evidence presented in the scenario, as well as the underpinning knowledge you have gained through your studies and revision.
