Dental programs are provided by the UMDNJ-New Jersey Dental School in cooperation with the Center for Continuing and Outreach Education. Continuing Dental Education is dedicated to providing dental healthcare practitioners with an array of informative, challenging and beneficial programs. These courses are intended to help providers maintain understanding and proficiency in new techniques, technologies and dental materials as well as sound methods of practice management and growth.

Accreditation
The UMDNJ-New Jersey Dental School is an approved course sponsor by the New Jersey State Board of Dentistry. Our courses, which deal with the scientific or clinical practice of dentistry, professional responsibilities, or ethical obligations of the profession, fulfill Board requirements for dentists' license renewal. Credit hours are granted on an hour-for-hour basis, provided the course is completed as designed. In addition, UMDNJ-New Jersey Dental School is an American Dental Association Continuing Education Recognition Program (ADA CERP) recognized provider and an Academy of General Dentistry (AGD) Approved National Sponsor for Fellowship/Mastership credit. The term of acceptance extends to 12/09. All of our courses meet the criteria for Continuing Education Units (CEUs) that are granted on an hour-for-hour basis, provided the course is completed as designed.


Note: Dental educational institutions have an obligation to disseminate new knowledge related to dental practice. In so doing, some presentations may include controversial materials or commercial references. Sponsorship of a continuing dental education course by the UMDNJ-New Jersey Dental School does not necessarily imply endorsement of a particular philosophy, procedure or product by this institution.

Tuition
Tuition includes the registration fee, handout materials, coffee breaks, lunch for most full-day programs, and other amenities involved in making this a pleasant learning experience. Residents and post-doctoral students must include a letter from their program director verifying their status in order to receive the resident rate.

Refunds
Refunds, less a $35.00 registration fee, will be granted if cancellation notice is received at least two working days prior to the start of the program. Refunds cannot be given for "no shows" or cancellations received once the course has started. In the event the Dental School feels the necessity to cancel a program, the registrant will receive a full refund or credit towards another continuing education course.
