Join the NSW/ACT Regional Committee’s online Primary Dental Sciences (PDS) Preparation Study Club on Saturday, 30 May and Sunday, 31 May 2026.
All candidates enrolled in the 2026 Primary Dental Sciences (PDS) Examination are invited to attend, regardless of where they reside.
Held just weeks before the examination commences, this two-day online session is designed to support final preparation by providing a collaborative space for candidates to reinforce core scientific principles, promote critical thinking and develop candidates’ ability to articulate concepts clearly—particularly in preparation for both written papers and viva voce examinations. The study club also fosters a collaborative learning environment, enabling candidates to share insights, clarify difficult concepts and build confidence in a supportive collegiate setting.
This event covers five (5) of the six (6) assessable subjects in the PDS Examination.
