Get your year's core verifiable CPD covered in a day!
 
The hugely popular CPD Essentials seminar returns in 2012, once again covering all 5 core subjects in a single day.

Due to popular demand, there are four dates for 2012, providing an opportunity for everyone to attend.

The first date for 2012 is Friday 3 February at the prestigious London location and only a few places remain! Take advantage of our fantastic January offer and save 25%!
 
Completing verifiable CPD can be a tricky task. In today's demanding and busy world, finding the time is not easy.

This year, Independent Seminars provides the answer to achieving this with the hugely popular CPD Essentials, which provides you with 7 verifiable CPD hours.
 
Four exceptional dental experts will be presenting educational, stimulating and relevant lectures on the core subjects, providing delegates not only with their core verifiable CPD for the year, but with crucial updates in these important subjects.
 
Dr Len D'Cruz will take on the topics of legal & ethical issues and complaints handling.
Dr Martin Fulford will present the topic of disinfection and decontamination.

The last two topics, medical emergencies and radiography & radiation protection, will be explored by Dr Yusof Omar and Dr Jimmy Makdissi respectively.
 
Plus, for the first time ever, we're taking this first-rate course to Leeds on Friday 9 March. We will also have an additional two dates in London on Friday 6 July and Friday 19 October if you are unable to attend in February. Whichever location is best for you, get booked soon as the CPD Essentials courses always sell out very quickly.

When are Independant Seminars going to accept that dentistry does exist outside London? 1 date in Leeds, 3 in London - wow - an improvement I guess. The last IS seminar I attended in London I was the only one there from north of Milton Keynes - rising cost of travel means a lot of people will simply not consider travelling long distances to tick the cpd box.

total con -it only provides "some" of "core" cpd Whatever that is as it really compulsory? The gdc in a reply to my manager said cpd is compulsory but "core" subjects are only recommended

Independent Seminars is simply providing a seminar on core CPD subjects that the GDC 'strongly recommends' – http://www.gdc-uk.org/dentalprofessionals/cpd/pages/cpd-for-dentists.aspx
