    Elina

  • I began my Dental Nursing journey in May with the School of Dental Nursing. Right from the start, I have been welcomed with open arms by all the teachers. The teachers are extremely helpful when giving advice and answering my questions with prompt responses. The teaching is also extremely helpful as the online videos are detailed and explained in a way that is easy to understand. For most videos, there is a set homework which is marked by your tutor. My tutor provides detailed feedback as well as encouragement. I’m so glad I enrolled on this course as this is the first step into achieving my goals of becoming a dentist.

There are no formal entry qualifications but students are expected to be sufficiently fluent in written and spoken English to communicate effectively with patients, their relatives, the dental team and other healthcare professionals in the UK. .

The NEBDN Level 3 Diploma in Dental Nursing is assessed through three components, each graded pass or fail.

  1. Portfolio of Evidence (PoE): A digital portfolio built over at least six months while you work as a trainee in a dental practice. It records your competence in dental nursing duties through evidence such as witness testimonies, assessor observations, work products and personal statements. Your tutor will guide you on how to compile it, and it is assessed and quality-assured by the School.
  2. Knowledge Test: An online multiple-choice exam of 65 questions in 90 minutes, covering the theoretical knowledge of dental nursing. NEBDN sets and marks it, and you must pass it before you can sit the Professional Discussion.
  3. Professional Discussion (PD): The final assessment, held online and lasting 60 minutes plus 10 minutes’ reading time. You discuss the knowledge and practical work you have completed in the workplace, based on the nine duties of the dental nurse. NEBDN sets and marks it.
