We are absolutely delighted to officially report that the Dental Assisting (DA) Program has been successful in achieving accreditation status!
Accreditation for any program is paramount, as it provides a crucial third-party validation of our uncompromising commitment to quality programming and excellence in oral health education. This success is a testament to the rigorous standards we uphold for our students and the profession.
I would like to extend my appreciation to Carla Clarke, the Director of the Dental Assisting Program, for her outstanding leadership and tireless efforts in navigating this complex process.
In addition to Carla, I want to emphasize that this achievement was a school-wide victory. It reinforces what I have said before: teamwork and collaboration are powerful, and together we achieve great things. Every member who contributed to the self-study, site visit preparation, and data gathering deserves recognition.
Congratulations to Carla and the entire DA team, and thank you to all the faculty and staff who contributed to this exceptional result!
