It provides participants with a structured introduction to their selected programme, ensuring they are adequately prepared to progress. It offers: Skill Check Assessment As part of the Gateway Course, participants will undertake a skill check assessment. This process is designed to evaluate whether they possess the essential learning skills required to advance further within the programme. Introduction to Teaching and Learning Methods Participants will receive an overview of our teaching and learning approaches, including workflows, tools, and communication styles. This introduction helps ensure that these methods align with your needs before you commit to an Advanced or Higher course. This programme is delivered in a 1-2-1 coaching format and comprises 3 learning outcomes and 12 Guided Learning Hours (GLH) over three weeks, providing an introduction to the dental profession. The training is highly specialised and examines the structure and culture of dental teams' work.

Each outcome is introduced with a one-to-one tutorial, following which participants are required to complete assignments in a write-in assessment book to demonstrate their learning in the context of their day-to-day work. The assignments measure participants’ ability to demonstrate understanding and practical applications for learning.
