About this course

What the Mandatory Training for Dentists – Online Courses – CSTF Aligned covers

You take Mandatory Training for Dentists – Online Courses – CSTF Aligned online, at your own pace, without booking a place on anything. The material is split into 14 modules you can stop and restart at will. There is no clock on it, so a week off in the middle changes nothing.

The material takes in CSTF Equality, Diversity and Human Rights – Level 1, CSTF Health, Safety, and Welfare – Level 1, CSTF Conflict Resolution – Level 1 and CSTF Fire Safety – Level 1. 10 more modules follow those, all named on the Modules tab.

It is open to anyone, and written for people who have to use the subject rather than be examined on it. We list 134 Clinical Care courses, of which 90 sit at Professional development. The course is CPD accredited, so the time counts towards a CPD record, and your certificate is available to download as soon as you finish.

The honest caveats: The provider has not stated what the certificate looks like for this one, so ask us first if the certificate is the reason you are buying.

Buyer guide

Is this the right course for you?

Best fit

Mandatory Training for Dentists – Online Courses – CSTF Aligned is a sensible shortlist choice when you want a structured route through the published syllabus rather than a general overview of the whole subject. Its 14-module plan starts with CSTF Equality, Diversity and Human Rights – Level 1 and CSTF Health, Safety, and Welfare – Level 1, which gives you a clear indication of the assumed starting point. That shape is likely to be most useful for care assistants, support workers and nursing staff whose training need matches those topics. It is a weaker fit if you only need one isolated skill, or if an employer has specified a different standard, awarding body or practical assessment. Before buying, compare that requirement with the final modules on CSTF Safeguarding Children – Level 2 and CSTF Adult Resuscitation – Level 1 as well as the course title.

How to use the syllabus

Treat the module list as a study plan, not just a contents page. Begin with CSTF Equality, Diversity and Human Rights – Level 1 and CSTF Health, Safety, and Welfare – Level 1 and note any terms or processes you need to revisit. Around the middle, CSTF Infection Prevention and Control – Level 2 acts as a useful checkpoint: if you can explain that material without looking back, move on; if not, repeat the preceding section before adding more. The later work on CSTF Safeguarding Children – Level 2 and CSTF Adult Resuscitation – Level 1 is where you can test whether the earlier ideas connect. After each block, write a short example from your own work or a realistic scenario. That simple retrieval step makes self-paced learning more useful than clicking straight through to completion.

Check before enrolling

The provider gives no fixed study-hour estimate, so use the module count to plan several shorter sessions rather than assuming it can be completed in one sitting. No fixed access period is stated in the validated course facts; ask us before enrolling if a deadline matters to your plans. The provider has not supplied reliable certificate details for this course, so confirm them with us if certification is your main reason for enrolling. The course carries a CPD accreditation reference; still check that your employer or professional body accepts this exact course for the purpose you have in mind.

We are committed to keeping up to date with changes in relevant UK legislation, national directives and conditions on a mandatory training program to ensure that it reflects changing legal, risk and service needs.

To that end, our Mandatory Training for Dentists modules are guided by the following:

Standards set by Skills for Care, Health Education England and UK Core Skills Training Framework (CSTF),

National guidance issued for locum care agencies and care recruitment agencies.

*Each of the Mandatory Training for Dentists modules provide essential and adequate detail as suggested by UK regulators (including the Care Quality Commission (CQC)).

Learning outcomes
The UK Core Skills Training Framework (CSTF) sets out 11 statutory and mandatory training topics for all staff working in health and social care settings. The CSTF includes nationally agreed learning outcomes and training delivery standards across all healthcare and social care settings.

We have worked with a range of subject matter experts to develop high quality, statutory and mandatory e-learning training sessions, which address all the knowledge outcomes at level 1 and 2 and at level 3, where appropriate for e-learning.

These statutory and mandatory training courses sessions are suitable for all health and social care staff working across the various Care Quality Commission (CQC) regulated organisations, including NHS and private hospitals, mental health, care homes and domiciliary care providers.

It is the responsibility of individual health and social care employer organisations to ensure that their workforce complete the appropriate training to comply with their statutory and mandatory requirements. It is also an employer’s responsibility to determine the best mode of delivering the training, whether that is face-to-face, e-learning or a blended approach. The CSTF provides further guidance on this.
