Distance learning materials for dentists--a users guide to quality

In May 2001, an open meeting was held at the BDA headquarters to discuss how the quality of distance learning material for dentists and the dental team could be assured in the future. As a result of the meeting an ad hoc group of users, producers, teachers and researchers was formed. The group have produced this paper which seeks to help dentists and all members of the dental team select quality material relevant to their needs. The President of the General Dental Council has added a foreword to this guide.
