Course description

This course is for you if you want to invest in dental nursing as a career choice but do not have the entry qualifications to study the HNC Dental Nursing. The course covers a broad range of routine dental subjects which have been purposefully written to develop the skills and expertise of a student dental nurse whilst affording opportunities to articulate onto higher level dental nursing programmes.

You will be taught in a state of the art dental facility by a dental team who are current practitioners. 

Entry requirements

Communications at Level 4 or National 5 English at C grade or above, and an additional National 5 at C or above, or successful completion of the Level 5 in Dental Nursing at SCQF Level 5. Participation at an information session, skills assessment and interview forms part of the selection criteria.

Your place on the course will be subject to a satisfactory Enhanced Disclosure Scotland check in the form of an enhanced PVG. You will be required to be immunised in line with Occupational Health's recommendation.

Progression

Progression towards the HNC in Dental Nursing or the SVQ Level 3 in Dental Nursing or a Modern Apprenticeship in Dental Nursing.
