Nicola Burnett Smith is a trainer who spent 10 years sitting on cases of alleged misconduct. Combining her expertise in communicating skills training with her experience as a panellist, she designed a course that looks closely at what motivates and protects dental professionals when faced with difficult dilemmas in everyday working life, using the Standards for Dental Professionals as the backbone of the learning. She and co-presenter Ian Sanders both spent many years as professional actors onstage and screen and they use this talent to bring to life the challenges that you will bring to the workshop, performing and improvising around your case studies. ‘Professionalism in Practice' has toured to PG Dental Deaneries all over the UK and has received excellent feedback as one of the most illuminating and practical workshops available on the subject of behaviour, reflective practice, communication and ethics.
