Preparing for the OIIAQ exam
The next sitting is on 12 December 2026. The exam covers your own scope of practice, and NursEduc's 97 OIIAQ clinical scenarios are filtered for this exam rather than borrowed from another.
Content that stays in your scope
Scenarios and questions marked OIIAQ cover the care, monitoring and interventions that fall to the licensed practical nurse, including where the role stops. Pharmacotherapy makes up 15 to 20% of the exam's questions and infection prevention 8 to 12%, per the Order's published blueprint -- the two areas worth working first.
Understand rather than memorise
Every answer comes with its reasoning. The point is that you know why one priority comes before another, which no memorised list will give you.
A pace you can hold
Reference sheets, dose calculators and spaced repetition let you work in short regular sessions instead of one block at the end.
Frequently asked questions
- Is the OIIAQ content separate from the OIIQ?
- Yes. Scenarios and questions are tied to an exam, and you only work through the ones that match yours.
- Can I try it for free?
- Yes, demonstration clinical scenarios are open without a paid account.
