Student Resources

Earn CE

 
Beginning Jan. 1, 2011, first- through fourth-year dental students who are currently members of the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD) may earn up to a maximum of 50 hours of continuing education (CE) credit toward achieving the AGD Fellowship Award (FAGD) after graduation.

 

Within the parameters of the award guidelines, students may earn lecture credit only for attending Program Approval for Continuing Education (PACE)- or Continuing Education Recognition Program (CERP)-approved courses. Students who join the AGD after Jan. 1, 2011, may earn credit for approved CE courses completed on or after their join date.

 

To begin earning credit toward Fellowship as a dental student, take advantage of the following approved CE opportunities:

 

·         AGD FellowTrack programs: Administered at the local level by select constituents, AGD FellowTrack programs help to guide students in their pursuit of Fellowship by directing you to PACE-approved CE lecture courses available in your area.

 

·         Local area courses: Search the AGD CE Directory by topic, speaker, location, and more to find CE opportunities close to home. You also can contact your local AGD constituent leaders or dental school liaisons to see if any free or discounted courses are available.

 

·         AGD Annual Meeting & Exhibits: Register for the AGD Annual Meeting & Exhibits as a student member and access quality CE lectures, capsule clinics, and the AGD Exhibit Hall for FREE.

 

·         AGD PACE-approved providers: Search for current PACE-approved program providers by state to find CE lecture courses in your area that are eligible for Fellowship credit.

 

For questions or more information regarding the AGD’s new student CE policy, please contact us at membership@agd.org or 888.AGD.DENT (888.243.3368).
