TEN learners who, while working full-time, studied with the Shared Services Training Centre based at Rotherwas, ahev good cause to smile.
They are celebrating having passed a nationally recognised level three qualification in oral health care for dental nursing.
They started their course last September, attending the training centre once a month supplemented by some evening revision and portfolio building sessions while continuing to pursue their full-time job within a dental surgery.
The training centre, having recently been awarded the prestigious Beacon status, was pleased with the 100 per cent pass rate on this course.
Details of the next course intake may be obtained from Stacey Knill on 01432 377770 or email training.centre@herefordpct.
