Join us on Tuesday 2 June, from 6pm, for this practical and informative webinar designed for dentists who are required to undergo a formal annual appraisal by their employer. Chaired by SAS representative on the FDS Board, Dr Anna Dargue, and presented by Medical Appraisal Lead, Dr Oliver Prince, the session will explore how effective appraisal can go beyond a mandatory requirement to become a meaningful tool for reflection, career progression, and improved patient care.

Why attend?

This session will help you:

• understand the differences between dental and medical appraisal
• learn how to prepare high‑quality supporting information
• give tips on how to maximise the value of appraisal conversations
• strengthen your understanding of the appraisal process

Through an overview of appraisal frameworks, the session will explain how dentists can reflect on their full scope of practice, align CPD activities with GDC Development Outcomes, and develop a clear and purposeful professional development plan. Particular attention will be given to dentists working within organisations that require a GMC-style appraisal, highlighting key differences and similarities between dental and medical appraisal and revalidation processes.
