Dental Education Conference 2020 30 April - 1 May 2020

We regret to inform you that as a result of the current Coronavirus outbreak, we have taken a decision to cancel this year's Conference. 

This is a large event, and in line with Government advice, we want to avoid taking staff away from their various important roles across our health and social care system.


NES Dental is delighted to confirm that it will be hosting a further Dental Education Conference in 2020, building on the success of last year’s event. This will be part of the wider Scottish Medical Education Conference two day event at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre.

This event will be of interest to all those involved in dental education and training, including trainees, trainers, those working in primary care, secondary care, Universities, Deaneries and Royal Colleges. 

There will be sessions on a wide range of topics and in addition, an opportunity to submit poster presentations.

The event also includes a number of parallel conferences, hosted by other health professional groups, with the opportunity to attend some of their sessions and joint sessions, highlighting interprofessional learning.

The meeting is sponsored by NHS Education for Scotland, and there will be no charge for participation.
