What is the Dental Nursing Traineeship?

The Dental Nursing Traineeship leads to a higher certificate in Dental Nursing, combining academic study with on-the-job training. Dental nursing is a dynamic, people-orientated and fulfilling career.

Dental Nursing requires a calm and empathetic nature with excellent organisation skills to respond to patients and the dental clinics needs.
