South West College, based in Northern Ireland, is thrilled to announce the launch of City & Guilds Level 3 Apprenticeship in Dental Nursing. It is an exceptional course designed to equip aspiring dental professionals with the technical skills and knowledge required to excel in the field.

The course, meeting the standards set by the General Dental Council (GDC) for dental nursing, will commence in September 2023 at both the Omagh and Dungannon Campuses.

The City & Guilds Level 3 Apprenticeship in Dental Nursing focuses on developing expertise in direct chairside work and providing support during various dental treatments. Students will also delve into the organisational and legal requirements that underpin the delivery of high-quality dental care, as well as explore the crucial role of dental nurses in meeting the unique needs of patients.

Building upon the success of 2022’s City & Guilds Level 3 Diploma in Dental Nursing course, this apprenticeship program is designed to provide comprehensive training, ensuring apprentices gain a solid foundation in the field of dental nursing. Led by the experienced and dedicated Charlene McElchar, who serves as the course coordinator, the program promises to deliver an exceptional learning experience for aspiring dental professionals.
