About Course
Every dental practice in England needs a confident, capable CQC Registered Manager who genuinely understands the regulations, not just someone who can get through the registration interview.
This course is designed for practices preparing a team member for that role. Over 15 tutor-supported weeks, your candidate builds a thorough working knowledge of CQC regulation: the fundamental standards, practice governance, safeguarding, health and safety, data handling, staff management, and inspection readiness. This builds the compliance foundation your practice will rely on long after registration.
Alongside that training, we prepare your candidate specifically for the CQC registration interview, covering what the CQC asks, what strong answers look like, and how to demonstrate fitness for the role with confidence.
The result: your practice gains a Registered Manager who passes the interview because they know the job, keeping your practice compliant from day one.
