The course is designed to equip students with the necessary skills to educate, support and achieve high quality oral health care standard and practice. It provides students with the knowledge required and the communication skills needed to impart knowledge and increase confidence to develop a career in the oral health.

A written practical and oral certification exam based on a case study will follow after the students finished and are prepared to sit for the exams. Practical Oral based on a Case Study.

This course is a one-year full-time sandwich course wherein students spend one day a week studying at the college and a minimum of two days a week doing practice work experience in a Dental Surgery or Hospital.
