Key features of the Portal

  • Online Shopping Cart area we call "iBooklet" that allows you to search and book courses. Thereafter you can manage the education you have booked by way of a suite of other functions available.
  • Dental Vocational Trainer Applications. This part of the overall recruitment process continues to be supported on the NES Portal. Applications run one year ahead of the training year in question and open in Autumn each year.
  • Dental Quality Improvement Projects. An area where dentists manage all aspects of either QI (Audit) or QI (eSEA) projects they are involved in. From time to time we offer other forms of QI Projects such as Peer Review and Research projects.

The NES Portal is secured by 256 bit encryption, as can be seen by our security certificate padlock when you view the application homepage. This gives you assurance any online payment is secure.
