The Faculty of Dental Trainers Needs You!

Applications for the Role of Chair are Open

The Faculty of Dental Trainers of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh was launched in 2016 as the world’s first Faculty aimed at supporting the role of the dental trainer. Having three levels of membership, Associate, Member (MDTFEd) and Fellow (FDTFEd), the FDT recognises achievement and excellence in dental training and, ultimately, enhances the quality of patient care education on a global platform. 

Today, dentists and dental care professionals in the FDT are represented across 27 countries, and we deliver patient care across many sectors and in multiple settings, from public and community services, hospital services, to the armed forces, colleges and universities. 

The FDT is excited to open applications for the position of Chair. We are committed to recruiting an individual who is most suited to the post based solely on the applicant's abilities, qualifications, experience and merit as measured against the job description and person specification. 

The Chair role is open to dentists who are Fellows of the Faculty in good standing.

If you seek to foster an open, co-operative, and dynamic environment as FDT Chair, please download the application pack or contact FDT@rcsed.ac.uk for more information and an informal discussion about the role. 

Closing date for applications: Monday 21 April 2025 at 12:00 BST.
