This period of employment aims to assess your clinical and communication skills. Your salary and work conditions will adhere to general employment terms.
Employment for Adaptation and Training Purposes
To pursue employment for adaptation and training purposes (evalueringsansættelse), you must apply for a position at a dentistry clinic. The employment duration should be a minimum of 12 months - or longer if we have assessed that you have not had enough clinical teaching hours and you must compensate for the missing hours during the employment -, during which you must fulfill the requirements outlined in §§ 1-2 of Bekendtgørelse (order no.) 427 af 9. maj 2011 om tilladelse til selvstændigt virke.
Throughout your employment, the clinic will evaluate the adequacy of your clinical and communicative skills. As part of this evaluation, the clinic is obligated to send reports to us.
Finding Job Opportunities
It is your responsibility to search for and apply to any available positions on your own.
You can search for vacancies in the healthcare system in Denmark at www.jobnet.dk. You can find several other job search portals on the web. You can also visit the individual employers' websites to see the jobs posted there (e.g. regions, municipalities and private healthcare providers. It is your own responsibility to find an employer who will employ you in an employment for adaptation and training purposes that meets the applicable requirements.
Not everyone succeeds in obtaining employment for adaptation and training purposes. It depends, among other things, of the capacity and request for staff.
Temporary Authorization (Evalueringsautorisation)
Once you have been offered a position, you must apply for and obtain a temporary authorization (evalueringsautorisation) from us. This authorization is specific to your employment for adaptation and training purposes (evalueringsansættelse).
