Q. Can I sign-up for only one or two courses in the workshop series?
A. Yes. The workshop courses can be taken individually. However, for ideal learning, they should be taken in a series format.
Q. Will I receive CE credits for courses taken at the CDEC?
A. Yes, we are an approved provider with the Academy of General Dentistry’s Program Approval for Continuing Education (PACE). Participation and lecture credits vary by course but, generally, Friday/Saturday courses provide participants with 12 CEUs. Upon completion of a CDEC course, we will submit a roster of attendees to the AGD and participants will receive a verification of attendance to submit for credit with other organizations.
