Morning!!

My friend is looking into doing a modern apprenticeship in Dental Nursing because she wants to improve her salary. She works in the NHS at the moment and is on a fairly decent wage.
Trouble is she'd be taking a dramatic pay cut if she did the modern apprenticeship, and she's wanting to know a little more about it before she goes into it.
Anyone got any advice?
Thanks!

I am currently a qualified dental nurse and work for the NHS.

I'd be more than happy to answer any questions she has, but would prefer to do this via email or pm

I am currently doing the National Course through Charles Clifford and would be happy to give her any advice.
Theres only 2 course run for Dental Nurse Training one is an NVQ and is through sheffield College and the other is as above.
She will need a placement in a surgery for a minimum of 24 hours per week to qualify for any of these courses.
