REDE-234 : Dental Practice Readiness Curriculum I
This course is designed to present the first-year dental student with information on dental career preferences and opportunities available to them as dental professionals. Steps for creating a viable career plan will be presented. The student will develop competence in dental economics and the management of a successful dental practice. The online Dental Practice Readiness Curriculum (DPRC) addresses the challenge of compressed dental school curricula with limited time for nonclinical topics. A blended-learning format which includes online education, simulations, and self-directed learning, as an alternative approach to faculty intensive classroom-based strategies, will be used.
