Online Vital verifiable CPD was launched in the summer 2008 issue of Vital. It offers DCPs the opportunity to complete eight hours of verifiable CPD per year for £30 (+VAT), by reading Vital articles.

Vital is published four times a year and 20,000 copies are distributed for free to a random selection of DCPs registered with the General Dental Council. For those who don't receive a free copy, Vital articles can be read for free on the Vital website at www.nature.com/vital. Just register for a log-in and password to gain access.

Reading Vital is free but Vital verifiable CPD costs £30+VAT per year via our website: www.nature.com/vitalcpd .
