<strong>Picker</strong> Institute Europe undertook the evaluation on behalf of the GDC between July<br />

and November 2012.<br />

The survey population was the GDC database of all registered dentists, excluding<br />

those without email addresses.<br />

The survey comprised 498 respondents, representing a response rate of 12%. The<br />

overall margin of error +/-6.5%.<br />

The findings of this study will inform, as appropriate, the GDC’s decisions about future<br />

policies and procedures, including continuing fitness to practise (sometimes referred to<br />

as revalidation).<br />

The GDC is currently running a public consultation on its proposals for new continuing<br />

professional development requirements for all GDC registrants. This also contributes<br />

to the GDC’s assurance of continuing fitness to practise policies.<br />
