Dental Infection Control Level 2 (VTQ)

Dental Infection Control Level 2 (VTQ) provides essential knowledge for professionals working in dentistry who must understand infection prevention and safe practice.

In dental environments, exposure to blood borne pathogens and contaminated instruments presents specific risks. This course explains how infections can spread through needles, dental equipment and other clinical tools, and outlines the practical steps required to minimise those risks.

The course meets the criteria for the GDC’s development outcome C and supports ongoing professional development.

Training includes:

• Understanding blood borne pathogens
• Routes of infection transmission
• Safe handling of needles and equipment
• Personal protective equipment (PPE)
• Best practice infection prevention procedures

The course is delivered entirely online, allowing learners to complete training at their own pace while maintaining access to materials for future reference.

Most dental professionals complete Infection Control training as part of regulatory requirements and ongoing professional development.

This online course allows you to train at your own pace, in your own time.

Some professionals that may need this course include:

• Dentists
• Dental Nurses
• Employees in dental practices
• Dental students
• Dental Hygienists
• Dental Technicians
• Practice Managers

How It Works:

1. We sell access keycodes to ProTrainings online courses up to 25% below the RRP. Order the number of access keycodes you need for each course like any other product from First Aid 4 Less, checking out and completing your order as you normally would. You will need to order one keycode per course, per person. Keycodes can only be redeemed once and only work for the course specified.
2. When you have completed your order, we will email you with:

• A link to the training portal
• Your keycode(s) for the courses ordered
• A PDF of what to do next

3. If necessary, you can then distribute keycode(s) to other learners as required, or use the keycode(s) yourself if the training is for you. Remember, keycodes can only be redeemed once and only work for the course specified.
4. Learners can then sign up using the link to the training portal, www.protrainings.uk/signup/firstaid4less. Each learner needs their own personal account so certificates and training records are correct. Redeem keycodes by entering a keycode in the ‘Key or Referral Code’ box as part of the sign up form. This will then make the relevant course for that keycode appear on the training dashboard when first logging in.
5. If you already have a login or have multiple courses you wish to appear in your training dashboard, you can redeem more keycodes easily by clicking the ‘Redeem Keycode’ link when logged in. Adding a new keycode in here will then add the relevant course to your training dashboard.
6. Once you have signed up on the ProTrainings portal, all of the administration, including saving progress, training records, issuing certificates and access to the material, is stored within your training login. This is on the ProTrainings system and is separate to the FirstAid4Less website. The portal is simple and intuitive to use. Technical queries or questions regarding the training or content are handled by ProTrainings – call 01206 807587 or email support@protrainings.uk
7. All learners have ongoing access to training materials after completion of the course for several months, with the option of weekly training emails delivered straight to your inbox to keep your knowledge up to date and demonstrate ongoing learning.
