Overview
Features
Throughout the Dental Nursing course at Warwickshire College, learners’ knowledge will be assessed by their designated course lecturer and assessor, and observations will be carried out in the workplace. Your assessor will provide feedback on your written work and support you with the completion of the portfolio of evidence and with passing the exam.
Your course lecturer and assessor will fully support you at all times and will carry out regular sessions where your coursework and progress will be discussed. We will also invite your practice manager to take part in these sessions.
