OUR PROGRAM
The Dental Start Dental Administration Program is comprised of three concentrated Dental Admin courses designed to provide attendees with the foundational knowledge and skills to work effectively in a clinical and administrative setting.
Graduates of this program will be prepared to work with and assist members of a dental healthcare team to deliver the highest level of patient-centred oral healthcare.
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The Dental Start Dental Administration Program provides focused, in-clinic practical training for a fraction of the price of traditional programs.
The program consists of three modules:
- Dental Start 101 – Dental Admin – Fundamentals
- Dental Start 201 – Dental Admin – Advanced
- Dental Start 301 – Dental Admin – Management
Each module can be taken independently or as part of a discounted package. Students who choose to register in the first two courses will receive a 10% package discount. A 15% discount will be applied to the third course, if you register for it at the same time.
In addition, we have customized advanced programs for existing Dental Administrators who are already working. Please contact us for more details at info@dentalstart.ca or call us at (888) 636-2798.
PROGRAM BENEFITS
Complete Your Course Work in a Fraction of the Time
Most traditional dental administration programs are extremely long (anywhere from 30 -50 weeks), overpriced, and fail to provide students with the practical, hands-on training they need to be job ready upon graduation.
Many students choose not to enroll in these programs because they don’t want to invest the time and resources these traditional programs require – especially if they’re unsure whether they are suited to a career in dental administration.
These students are looking for shorter, relevant programs that will help them obtain job experience and become job ready in a short period of time.
Avoid Costly Tuition
The Dental Start Dental Administration Program provides focused, in-clinic practical training for a fraction of the price of traditional programs.
