Continuing Studies
The ICI course in Dental Assisting & Nursing is offered as a foundation studies course only. It does NOT qualify for the membership requirements of the General Dental Council to work as a dental nurse within the UK. The course may be useful for existing dental nurses who wish to undertake professional development or those who wish to undertake a foundation studies program prior to undertaking future studies in dental nursing. Most other countries such as Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, Canada and many states within the United States do not regulate dental assistants.
