The successful 2026 summer exam season comes to a close

After almost 7 weeks, the 2026 summer ABDO exam season has officially ended. It has absolutely flown by and we are thrilled that it has been, once again, such a success.

We had hundreds of candidates attending the National Resource Centre for either their PQEs, FQEs or contact lens exams. In addition, we hosted dozens of examiners, who are industry professionals supporting the facilitation of these key events.

We are proud to work closely with the ABDO exams team to support the running of these events. We also want to extend a massive thank you to the patients who attended this season – we couldn’t have done it without you!

If you are looking for a venue to host exams or examination style events, call the NRC team today on 0121 752 7500 for further details. The NRC is the ideal exam venue in Birmingham, with flexible capacity for theory and practical exams, as well as fully kitted clinical bays. This means we can provide an accurate environment for your candidates. We tend to book 12-18 months in advance, so we would advise getting in touch as soon as possible.
