To further enhance opportunities for members to acquire recognition for their participation in continuing professional development (CPD), DOHTAQ is introducing a scheme this year. Find information, download a Record of Continuing Professional Development, or apply for accreditation of the course/professional development that you have undertaken.
Alternatively, contact our CPD officer for more information or to have forms emailed or faxed to you.
Anyone can attempt the quizzes and test their knowledge free of charge. DOHTAQ is currently negotiating for dental and oral health therapists (who are not members of the Australian Dental Hygienists Association) to be able to receive a certificate so that they can claim CPD hours.
