The purpose of training as laid down by the GDC is to promote patient safety by working to ensure that specialists have achieved the appropriate learning outcomes. The SAC in Oral Surgery aims to promote excellence in the practice of Oral Surgery and to be responsible for maintaining standards through training, assessments, examinations and professional development.
The close relationship between specialists and trainees in Oral Surgery should facilitate frequent feedback. This is supplemented by regular appraisal by the educational supervisor and annual evaluation by the Assessment Panel, under the auspices of the Postgraduate Dean. Continuous appraisal throughout training will be undertaken by the educational supervisor and other senior members of staff.
