The paper proposes a simple method of voluntary continuing dental education accreditation for dentists. It is suggested that the Australian Dental Association should adopt a positive role in promoting a method of accreditation for its members. The reasons for such a scheme are discussed in the light of the current scrutiny directed at the professions on this important issue.
