Dental Nursing Apprenticeship
Gloucestershire College is pleased to offer the Level 3 Diploma in Dental Nursing standards, which provides an excellent route to train Dental Nurses in your practice with the qualified standard required by the General Dental Council (GDC).
The program starts in October 2019, and is suitable for both new and existing staff members.
New Dental Nursing standards to develop talent within your practice
Developing the skills and knowledge of your staff is vital to overcome the challenges your practice faces, whilst continuing to thrive in a rapidly evolving sector. The exciting new standard available with GC includes classroom participation in a structured learning environment, so learners profit from access to additional resources and peer group learning as well as practical learning in the workplace.
College delivery takes place once every three weeks on a Tuesday 14:30 - 19:30, to allow the apprentice more time in the surgery working in the dental environment. This apprenticeship also provides the opportunity for the apprentice to complete an end point assessment to aim for distinction level, therefore securing a higher level of apprenticeship.
