Dental professionals can now pay their GDC annual retention fee, update their contact details and check the details on their practising certificate before it is printed, using the GDC's new self-service website e-GDC at http://www.gdc-arf.com.

The recently launched site is aimed at simplifying the management of registration, allowing registrants to access their details at any time of day or night. According to Edward Bannatyne, GDC Director of Operations, a range of additional online services is planned for next year, including online annual CPD declarations and a paperless direct debit to pay your annual retention fee.

Any feedback on e-GDC is welcomed and should be sent to Processing Manager Anne Gerulat at agerulat@gdc-uk.org.
