Is your EDI information up-to-date and complete?

Last week the GDC published the annual registration report, providing a snapshot of registration data held by them on 31 December 2019. It includes statistics on the total number of dental professionals on the Registers, by title, the equality and diversity profile of all registrants, and the figures and details relating to additions and removals from the Registers in 2019.

During the analysis of this data, GDC identified significant under-reporting of equality, diversity and inclusion information.  They state 'While over three-quarters of you have completed your personal data on eGDC, this leaves a considerable number of people who have not. The more we can improve the quality and completeness of this data, the better we will be able to identify, understand and respond to potential issues relating to equality, diversity and inclusion'.

If you have not yet added your personal data or if it needs updating, we urge you to do this now via your eGDC account . You will find the 2019 Registration Report  on our website.
