Using the on-demand webinars is simple. You will require the following:
- A PC/Apple Macintosh with a broadband connection
- Basic computer skills
The on-demand webinars are recordings of our live webinars which have been edited and put into a learning course. You view the presentation answering quiz questions on what you have seen. At the end of the course you are presented with your CPD certificate.
The On-demand webinars are recordings of the Live Webinars which take place monthly. The live events are totally interactive allowing participants to chat with other users, pose questions to the presenter or even to give feedback as the presentation takes place.
The on-demand webinars are less interactive but, as recordings, are available to view at your convenience - you can start and stop, picking up where you left off. The on-demand webinars also have the added benefit of quiz questions which test your knowledge of the presentation and help you to absorb more information.
For best results we recommend using both services to fully engage in the learning and development process.
A single purchase of each course gives you up to 60 days access with CPD certification on completion. Dental Nurses subscribed to the lunch 'n' learn CPD Programme are given unlimited access to all courses. Each month a new webinar recording will become available which you will gain free access to with this subscription.
If you would like to ask any other questions or require any assistance please contact us.
