The future of dental apprenticeships
The Government has announced that apprenticeships need to be reformed so that they all provide substantial and sustained training that equips apprentices with transferable skills and full competency in an occupation.
To achieve this, new scheme The Trailblazers was developed. This initiative puts employers at the forefront of apprenticeship reform, and allows them to collaborate on designing apprenticeships within their sector.
Apprenticeships for the Dental Health Sector are currently in development, with plans to improve the current nurse apprenticeship and to create an apprenticeship for Practice Managers and also one for dental technicians.
Two short surveys have been released to gather the dental industry’s thoughts on apprenticeships and what areas need improving. You can complete the surveys by following these links;
