NHS England’s Dental Lifelong Learning programme offers verifiable continued professional development (CPD) events for the whole dental team.
We offer regular clinical and non-clinical essential training, with a reputation for providing high quality, good value, relevant CPD for all dental professionals.
We are currently offering our lecture-based courses as webinars. Our Clinical Skills Unit has been adapted with screens in place between each phantom head, and processes have been put in place at Bourne House to support social distancing. Many of our full day hands-on courses have been adapted and will be delivered as a half day lecture via webinar, followed by a half day hands-on session in our Clinical Skills Unit. This month we have a number of hands-on courses scheduled in our Clinical Skills Unit, including rubber dam and hands-on endo, and we look forward to welcoming delegates to Bourne House.
We operate the majority of our training from a purpose built training and education facility located just off the A1 at Durham. Here you can find a state of the art Clinical Skills Unit with 14 Phantom head units, 2 surgeries, radiography training suite, decontamination training suite and simulation equipment. We also have a clinical skills unit at Carlisle Infirmary.
Our flexible training includes lectures, hands-on courses at our dental education centres and evening study sessions for all members of the Dental Team; we work closely with NHS England and the General Dental Council (GDC) to ensure our courses reflect the needs of the profession.
