Recertification Forum - Nelson

The Council is currently consulting on a review of our recertification framework.We have been examining our approach to recertification and have identified aspects of our system that need improving.  We are now consulting with our practitioners and other stakeholders about the issues and opportunities we have identified, and want to hear your experiences and ideas on how we can improve recertification for everyone. In the last 12 months we have undertaken three projects to inform and prepare us for this conversation with our practitioners and stakeholders about recertification.  We have: * reviewed some of the research and literature to identify the common elements in regulatory approaches to recertification * held a symposium for decision-makers and strategic thinkers to obtain feedback on our case for change and assess whether our analysis is on the right track * produced a discussion document "Recertifying our oral health practitioners: thinking about the future" [http://www.dcnz.org.nz/assets/Uploads/Recertification-review/FINAL-discussion-document-on-recertification-for-issue-27-June-2017.pdf] for consideration and responses from all our practitioners and stakeholders We invite you to attend a forum or webinar so we can talk to you and share ideas and experiences about recertification. We also encourage you to participate in our consultation by completing our online survey [https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/DentalCouncilRecertification].
