New £500,000 Centre for Dental Training To Open in Bradford
Students in West Yorkshire will be able to study in a new state of the art dental training centre this week, as NORDEC, the Northern Dental Education Centre in Bradford is officially opened.
NORDEC will be opened this Friday at a ceremony at Bradford College by the MP for Bradford South, Judith Cummings, as well as being joined by leading dental industry figures as well as figures from Bradford College and the Leeds City Region Enterprise Partnership (LEP).
The new centre will be utilised to train up the next apprentice dental nurses, as well as offer CPD training to staff throughout the world of dentistry. This will include subjects like oral cancer awareness, fluoride application and taking dental impressions.
NORDEC is a £500,000 joint venture between Bradford College and the LEP and includes training equipment that is state of the art in the field of dentistry, from classrooms set up to look like a dentist’s surgery, a classroom filled with mannequins with realistic mouths, a decontamination suite as well as classroom, lecture, conference and workshop space.
The NORDEC will be open to practitioners and students from Friday 29th September, based at Bradford College’s Advanced Technology Centre, a £10 million project that opened two years previously.
