Free Online CPD

Thank you girls for your quick responce, never bloged before

If you mean the Oral B booklets that are connected to the Stephen Hancock site, then I think they only issue one a year.

Who's your Oral B rep maybe she could point you in the right direction

Mine was mail shots to the practice.

thanks for the tip with the telephone number, I have now managed to
register, but not sure if it will count as verifiable CPD in the UK.
Also where do you get the oral B booklets please.

Hi
try leaving off the 0 its worked for all of us at our practice

I got it to work with my mobile number, but had to drop the the 0

eg. if mobile is 07654 123456, then enter it as 7654 123456

I tried with lots of telephone numbers
none of them woked not even my mobile.

Oral B will send out booklets to fill in and send off to get CPD I have done 3 with them so far.

would US CPD acually count here in the Uk as they probably have different procedures?

I must admit I had a problem when I first encountered this. It just wouldn't accept telephone numbers beginning 01 or (=44)01. The only way I managed to overcome this was to enter a mobile phone number. It worked ok for me then.

I had a go a doing my first course from there today and found it ok. I answered the online test after without and problems and successfully downloaded and printed a certificate after.

You should be ok with accessing the website now, but any problems give me another shout! Good luck!

Hi
I tried to register on this site but I couldnt get past the telephone number that you had to register- seems you need a USA number, how did you get round this?
Thanks for tip

I have found a website in partnership with Oral B which offers FREE ONLINE CPD!

Firstly, you have to register to access the courses, but there are at least 90 different ones aimed at dental nurses in a wide variety of topics, including the recommended core CPD, ranging from 1 to 4+ hours of CPD each. After answering the questions set after each course, you can print off a certificate for your records so you are able to class this as verifiable CPD.

The address is
www.dentalcare.com/en-US/conteduc/conteduc.jspx

Take a look as this is definitely a great way of increasing your CPD records free of charge!!
