The theme for this year's British Dental Conference & Exhibition is ‘Strategies for success: you and your team’.

The event will be held at Manchester Central Convention Complex from 1-3 May 2008 and promises to be the biggest to date, and perhaps the most team-focused.

DCP sessions will include: ‘Preparing for DCP registration’; ‘Strategies for successful teamwork’ (by President of the BADT, Leigh Ann Randell); ‘Now you are a registered professional – compulsory CPD for DCPs’; ‘Are you an expansive receptionist or a cheap practice manager’ (hosted by the BDPMA); and ‘The dental nurse's guide to clinical governance’, led by Pam Swain and Angie McBain from BADN.

Registrations for the conference must be received by Thursday 24 April 2008 in order to receive your badge and joining instructions in advance of the event. Team discounts are available and online registrations also receive a discount off conference ticket bookings. To book your place, go to www.bda.org/events or telephone 0870 166 6625.
