Description:Get the skills to launch a career as a Dental Assistant in just one year. In Cambrian's program, you won't just be learning, you'll be doing — and lots of it! You'll start by practicing your skills on mannequins and your classmates in the College's dental clinic. Once you've gained some practical experience, you'll treat real patients in the clinic before completing a placement in a dental office.

You will have an opportunity to use your new knowledge and gain valuable practical experience in our clinic and in community settings. Practical experiences offer the opportunity to work with dental hygienists, dentists, and other health care professionals in a multi-disciplinary environment. Clinics and some classroom experiences may include evening scheduling.
