Please note that ALL courses must now be booked on the new Dental Training website – www.kssdentaltraining.co.uk.  Once you have registered you can book as many courses as you would like.

Welcome to the 2011/2012 Postgraduate Dental Programme. We have endeavoured to make the programme as interesting and varied as possible. A Dental Committee, made up of local GDPs and Consultants, meets regularly to discuss the forthcoming programme and we would welcome any comments or ideas you may have to improve the format/content.

Due to popular demand, some speakers have been invited back again because their courses last year were over-subscribed. Early booking is recommended.

If you are unable to attend a course, please let us know as soon as possible so that your place can be filled by someone else. Alternatively, we will let you know as soon as possible if a course has been cancelled, either due to the speaker pulling out or insufficient numbers to run the course.

If you are required to bring any specific instruments/preparation, it will be stated in the course write-up or we will let you know beforehand. CMEC is able to provide a fairly comprehensive range of dental equipment, including motors, hand pieces and dental instruments for hands-on courses. GDPs are encouraged to bring their own familiar hand instruments and a protective coat.

Please note carefully the start time or your course(s) as speakers have planned their courses to start and finish on time. Coffee will be available at registration (half an hour before the course start time) and it is important that you sign the Register to receive your Certificate of Attendance + FP84. A coffee/tea break mid-morning and mid-afternoon is planned unless altered by a Lecturer. Lunch is provided by an external caterer for all-day courses. Please advise us in plenty of time if you are vegetarian or have specific dietary requirements by using the space provided on the booking form.
