The Prime Practice Team Compulsory Continuing Education is coming: Burden or Opportunity?
[Soon to be published] Dr Phillip Palmer and Simon Palmer

On July 1st 2010, dental board registration is due to become nationalised. When it does, it is almost certain that a dentist's annual registration renewals will be contingent on them meeting minimum levels of continuing education every year. For the first time for most dentists and dental practices in Australia, doing continuing education courses will go from being voluntary to being compulsory... Click here for the whole article.

Practice Exit Planning: Different ways of selling, or not.
[Soon to be published] Dr Phillip Palmer and Simon Palmer

There are many baby boomers who own dental practices and who are approaching the end of their careers over the years to come, wondering what their choices are. And there are probably more choices available to them now than have been available to an end-of-career dentist ever before... Click here for the whole article.

2010 calendar dates now available online

We are going to be really busy in 2010. We have more workshops being run in more locations more often throughout 2010. We look forward to seeing you soon, but don't forget- our courses often sell out. Register early so you don't miss out. Visit our course calendar here for more details.

Masters conference a huge success!

60 of Prime Practice's Masters* clients descended on Bondi Beach's Swiss Grand Hotel for a two-day conference extravaganza. The conference was a huge success with participants learning new leadership skills and being taken through the unique new Prime exit planning concept of "Never Sell" and the ongoing passive income that can be derived from this if set-up properly. There was also a fantastic guest speaker, Dr Evian Gordon founding director of Brain Dynamics Centre. * Masters clients are those who have been with the Prime Practice Management Programme for over 3 years.

NEW WORKSHOP - Exit Planning, Associates, Selling and Never Selling

There are probably more choices available to dentists thinking about selling their practice now than ever before. Options have opened up over the last few years in Australia that previously never existed, providing increased opportunities for leverage in your practice. How do you know which option is right for you and how do you make the most of the asset you have created? Click here for more.
