Abstract:
Although progress testing (PT) is well established in several medical schools, it is new to dentistry. Peninsula College of Medicine and Dentistry has recently established a Bachelor of Dental Surgery programme and has been one of the first schools to use PT in a dental setting. Issues associated with its development and of its adaption to the specific needs of the dental curriculum are considered.
