Near-peer learning, where peers from more senior year levels teach more junior peers is a popular teaching strategy in healthcare education. There is an emerging trend to utilise this teaching strategy in preparing students for Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) in the form of near-peer led formative OSCEs (NP-OSCE). However, there is little exploration of this teaching strategy in medical imaging education, nor how students perceive NP-OSCEs as beneficial to their learning. This study addresses this gap. ⋯ Educators should consider including NP-OSCEs in their medical imaging curriculum as students perceive it as a valuable learning experience that assists them to prepare for their OSCE.
