Got questions?
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from dentists about council, verification and Dataflow support.
Do I need a Good Standing Certificate?
It depends on the authority. In the Dataflow lists we work with for dentists, DHA, HAAD and MOH ask for a Good Standing Certificate. Others can ask for it at another stage, so we confirm for your case before you start.
Do you help with the ADC exam for Australia?
Yes, with online coaching for the ADC exam. See the ADC exam coaching page for the details.
Is Trueway a recruitment agency?
No. Trueway is an independent documentation support service: council, verification, Dataflow, attestation, PCC, exam booking and coaching. We do not offer jobs or placements, and a company using a similar name to offer jobs is not connected with us.
Can I complete Dataflow while still working full-time?
Yes. Document uploads, case tracking and follow-ups with your college and previous employers are handled online, and we send you status updates on WhatsApp.
Do I need to visit a Trueway branch in person?
No. You're welcome at any of our branches, but most steps can be started and managed remotely through WhatsApp, online upload and courier.
How are my original certificates handled?
Originals are needed only for some steps, such as certificate attestation. We tell you which originals are needed before you send anything, and documents are sent by courier where needed.
