GDC Redesign

The General Dental Council (GDC) has begun a review of its Standards Guidance and Scope of Practice.
The aim of the review is to go back to square one. This will take place in 2011 and will include consultations, focus groups, a working group and GDC staff attending events across the UK, to hear directly from those affected.
The GDC will be asking registrants, patients and other stakeholders what level of detail they would find helpful, what they think of the current standards and what does and doesn’t work.
The GDC is hoping to produce the new guidance in early 2012.
