Learning outcomes
GDC development outcomes A, B, C and D.
As a registered dental nurse, keeping skills and knowledge up to date throughout your career is a fundamental part of being a dental professional. Education underpins the dental profession and instils the basic concepts of safe practice and always acting in the best interest of patients.
Continuing professional development (CPD) is at the heart of dental professionals’ lifelong learning. It has been compulsory for dentists since 2002 and for dental care professionals since 2008. It was introduced by the General Dental Council (GDC) to ensure that all dental professionals kept their knowledge and skills current, encouraging the development of new skills and knowledge to improve patient care and maintain high professional standards.1
