I’ve been training to be a dental nurse for 3 years now but struggling to pass the exam. If I take the job role for the dental nurse, will I have to start my training completely from scratch ? Will I be able to come home on weekends ?
Hi, if you are not already trained as a dental nurse then potentially you would restart trg but that would be up to the course provider and a discussion with them. When you initially join the army you would do 14wks basic training (army training) where you get a few wknds off but not many. Once you start training it would be exactly the same as you have done as a civilian only you are paid and your accommodation etc is also paid therefore you do get wknds off. I hope this helps. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
