We have lost one third of technicians since 2008. To save our profession and rebuild our workforce, we need to work together, laboratories and colleges, to attract and develop new talent.
Apprenticeships was how our training began, and it still has a future, building skills and knowledge together.

What is my responsibility as an employer? How do I recruit. Who will help with the forms. How do I access a course? How many days will the student be at college. What about digital dentistry. All will be revealed!
