UCLA Dentistry’s Office of Continuing Dental Education (CDE) strives to fulfill all the needs of our audience. To that end, we offer custom continuing dental education courses for dentists and clinicians from your group or university. Our courses are of the highest caliber, and provide the best in clinical education from our esteemed instructors, many of whom are full-time faculty.

Most custom courses would be held at the UCLA School of Dentistry, located in Los Angeles, California. We do have instructors who are available to travel to your location for a portion of the course.

Custom courses can be designed for four to 12 days and can accommodate a group of any size. Based on our experience, a group between 20 to 90 works best. Course content, speakers, and dates will be chosen to best fit the needs and desires of the individuals in the course. Content can focus on a singular subject (i.e. Implants, or Aesthetics) or a variety of topics, depending on the specifications of the requesting group. Hands-on workshops and live surgery demonstrations are also available.

Fees include course handouts, plus breakfast and lunch. For an additional fee, professional translation services can be arranged, while the course is taking place.

Assistance arranging tour groups and booking quality hotels near UCLA campus can be coordinated through the CE office. UCLA is close to many popular attractions, including shopping in Beverly Hills, celebrity-sightings in Hollywood, beaches in Malibu, Disneyland, and more.

Your custom course concludes with an official ceremony and dinner of completion on the historic UCLA campus and includes a signed certificate by the Director of Continuing Dental Education, Dr. Todd Schoenbaum.

We look forward to having your group here.
