What's in a Sage Dental Nursing Lesson?

You'll find our NEBDN National Diploma course is laid out in a logical, engaging, and easy-to-follow manner. Our pre-recorded virtual classes incorporate clear visuals, diagrams, and relevant imagery to help you understand and visualise complex topics. Each lesson is professionally narrated, explaining everything you need to know. You have complete control: watch part of a lesson and pause, or cover several lessons in one session if you wish. And every lesson is accompanied by comprehensive downloadable notes offering additional detail.

Advanced Technology

As you'd expect from a modern, high-quality online course, you can access your lessons seamlessly on your smartphone, Mac, tablet, or PC.

Our platform is designed to:

1. Streaming the best quality video for you.
2. Allow you to pause, rewind, and even speed up or slow down the video to match your learning pace.
3. Let you re-watch lessons as many times as you wish – perfect for initial learning and thorough revision.

Engaging Video Content

Our NEBDN National Diploma features comprehensive pre-recorded virtual classes covering every topic in the syllabus. Pause, rewind, and rewatch as much as you want. Students enrolled in the NEBDN Diploma typically have access for up to 2 years to our online video library and all Sage Dental Nursing learning facilities, allowing you to learn at your own pace. Accessing your lessons is easy: just log in to our platform and choose your lesson. The videos are designed in manageable segments (often 15-20 minutes long), making them easy to digest and fit into your schedule.

High-Quality Downloadable Notes

Downloadable notes accompany each video lesson. Provided as high-quality PDF documents, these notes include key images from the lessons as well as concise written summaries and important information.

You can:

1. Write your own comments or annotate the notes.
2. Use them to see detailed explanations alongside the video content.

Not only do the notes reinforce your learning by complementing the videos, but they are also an excellent revision aid, helping you prepare effectively for your NEBDN examinations.

Personal Tutor

When you enrol in our NEBDN National Diploma, the level of personalised support you receive, particularly concerning your Record of Experience (RoE), previously known as the 'Portfolio of Evidence', will correspond to the learning tier you select:

For our E-Learning (Videos Only) tier, you will have access to all course materials and general administrative support via info@sagedentalnursing.uk.

With our Tutor-Led Learning tier, you receive structured guidance from our tutors, including support for your RoE.

If you opt for the Personal Tutor (On Request) tier, once you are progressing with your RoE, a personal tutor can be appointed to you. The role of this personal tutor is largely to ensure your RoE is in line with the standards set by the NEBDN and to direct you towards successful completion. Getting help is easy: just send your tutor an email whenever you have questions.

We aim to help you every step of the way. Regardless of your tier, our wider Sage Dental Nursing team, including course administrators and support staff, can be contacted for general assistance before any specific tutor engagement begins. You're in good hands.

Progress Monitoring

To check on your progress and ensure you are on the right lines with your NEBDN National Diploma, we have a progress measuring system in our student dashboard.

For RoE components (with Tutor-Led or Personal Tutor tiers), we review your work when you indicate it's ready and provide feedback accordingly.

We provide guidance on general progress targets, aligning with typical timelines for NEBDN exam dates, and our platform allows you to track your completed lessons. You can review your own progress through the course material at any point via your online access.

Our Commitment at Sage Dental Nursing

When you enrol with Sage Dental Nursing for your NEBDN National Diploma, we believe you are entering a partnership between Sage Dental Nursing, your employer, and yourself.

We all have a significant interest in seeing you succeed and are committed to helping you in every way that we can. Therefore, our expectation is that your employer will support this partnership by providing opportunities for training and supervision to help you become the best dental nurse you can be.

What Your Employer Needs To Do

For your NEBDN National Diploma, your employer must provide a GDC-registered witness (or witnesses) – such as a dentist, dental nurse, hygienist, or therapist – who will observe and provide testimony for your in-practice assignments, which are submitted as part of your Record of Experience (RoE). In addition, it is beneficial if employers also provide a mentor within the practice who can supervise, sometimes teach, but always provide you with the opportunity to learn your profession in a working clinical environment.

Record of Experience (RoE)

The coursework assessments for the NEBDN National Diploma are submitted as a Record of Experience (RoE). No practice visits are typically necessary by Sage Dental Nursing assessors for this part. The RoE includes witness testimonies after procedures have been completed in practice, potentially performance evidence uploads, and written assignments or reflections. All are submitted online through the NEBDN platform.

Work is first witnessed by a GDC registrant working in your practice and then will be reviewed and signed off by a Sage Dental Nursing tutor/assessor as part of your course progression.

The records in your RoE form a crucial part of your proof that you are ready to take the NEBDN assessments, and we at Sage Dental Nursing work with you and provide guidance to ensure these exercises are completed correctly and meet NEBDN standards.

Your Employer's Commitment

For learners joining the Sage Dental Nursing NEBDN National Diploma, we may email your employer (if details are provided and it's relevant to your RoE support) to inform them of your enrolment and outline how they can support you. We encourage open communication between you, your employer, and Sage Dental Nursing to ensure a successful learning journey.
