CPD and short courses for DCPs

Eastman CPD offers a number of programmes for DCPs wishing to extend or develop their skills and understanding in dentistry. The courses are designed to meet a wide range of needs and interests, such as:

• new skills and qualifications that may not have been included in original basic training
• advanced courses that go beyond the general coverage of basic training
• team building and team approach to dentistry programmes
• associated courses designed specifically to complement some of our programmes for dentists
• refresher courses for confidence and skill building
• to enable you to work along side specialists

If you cannot find a date or course that meets your requirements or you would like any further information, please contact the Programmes Co-ordinator or Programmes Administrator (details listed at the bottom of this page).
