Waiting lists are available for most courses - please check the website or phone us to determine availability. Fees include registration, enrolment costs, use of equipment and materials as required, and all meals and refreshments during the course.

 
Cancellations and refunds: If you need to cancel your registration, please inform the Continuing Professional Development Office immediately so that your place can be offered to another applicant. Alternatively, if you are able to nominate a colleague to take your place please notify us as soon as possible so that enrolment details can be changed. The following terms and conditions apply to refunds following cancellation:
•       A 20% handling fee will be charged for cancellations made more than 6 weeks prior to the course commencement date.
•       Cancellations made less than 6 weeks prior to the course will be offered a 50% refund.

Parking: No parking is permitted within the School of Dentistry from 7.00am to 5.00pm Monday to Friday. Parking is only permitted for delegates for courses held after 5.00pm and on weekends. Information regarding parking at external venues will be provided with confirmation of enrolment. The School of Dentistry CPD program reserves the right to alter the program details as circumstances require.
 
CPD hours: All registered participants will receive a Statement of Attendance from the School of Dentistry indicating the number of CPD hours for the course. Please retain this for your records. The Dental Board of Australia Continuing Professional Development registration standard states that practitioners must:
a) Complete a minimum of 60 hours of CPD activities over three years
- 80% of the minimum 60 CPD hours must be clinically or scientifically based
b) Make a declaration of their compliance with CPD requirements at the time of annual renewal
c) Maintain their own records detailing their CPD activities for audit purposes
d) Produce evidence of their CPD activities when requested to do so by the Board.
 
(Evidence will take the form of an electronic or paper-based logbook with details of the activities and the number of hours spent. The Board may ask for additional supporting information, such as certificates of attendance).
