It is a well known fact that in dentistry the key to success relies on regular training throughout the year. This opens doors to new techniques and treatments, whilst improving on those already acquired. Gaining verifiable CPD should not feel like it is a burden, it should instead be seen as a fantastic opportunity to expand both clinical knowledge as well as the vital comprehension of business that will give dental professionals the ability to run a dental practice that flourishes.
Regularly attending courses and lectures gives dental professionals more than just the opportunity to fulfil their CPD quota. It gives them the chance to learn from keynote speakers on a variety on interesting and informative subjects. This will allow them to raise the standard of the quality of the clinical work which they deliver as well as improving the functionality and profitability of their practice.
The range of dental training that is now made available for dental professionals is simply incredible. From clinical procedures to in depth business advice and assistance, there are more ways than ever to reach CPD targets and integrate these advanced skills into your practice. Not only are the areas in which you can train varied, the formats are too, with webinars, lectures, and hands on activities all popular choices. It seems that there is a method of learning to suit everyone’s requirements, availability and style.
Attending lectures and seminars also gives delegates the chance to meet and discuss queries or problems that they have with other like-minded clinicians. Having the opportunity to interact with other clinicians in a training environment is a valuable chance to network with others, something that a number of clinicians may rarely get the chance to do.
Making sure that you attend the correct mix of lectures, hands on courses and online training is essential. With a truly blended approach to education you will be able to get the most out of your training.
The only problem that training presents is the cost of it. Making sure that you attend enough events to meet (at the very least) your CPD requirements can be quite expensive. However, there are ways of managing to control costs and keep them to a minimum whilst attending as many courses as you like. Joining a group like Dental Professionals Ltd (DPL) gives dental professionals of all backgrounds the chance to take advantage of offers on the cost of CPD. They offer a variety of regular courses that are presented by a series of industry experts who cover both the clinical and business aspects of the industry. Previous courses have included a core CPD day, hands on days on endodontic techniques, composite layering techniques, as well as management days on the new NHS contract changes.
With affordable options available there is no reason why all dental professionals, from practice managers to hygienists, can’t attend more than their fair share of courses, lectures and workshops!
