Examination Process

Created by Liza Barton, Modified on Fri, 31 May, 2024 at 2:57 PM by Liza Barton

The NEBDN examination is in two parts and you will need to pass Part 1 before you can take Part 2.

Part 1 is a written exam consisting of multiple-choice questions (MCQs) and extended matching questions (EMQs). Part 2 is a practical examination consisting of a series of objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs). These clinical examinations are designed around simulated situations which you may commonly encounter in the workplace.

Once you have passed Part 2 of the examination you will be awarded the NEBDN National Diploma in Dental Nursing and you will be eligible to apply for registration with the General Dental Council as a qualified Dental Nurse.
