A Zoom link will be sent to registrants to view the webinars.
The Dental Board of California requires all licensed dental
professionals (DDS, DMD, RDA, RDH, etc.) to take approved CE courses in
Infection Control and California Dental Practice Act every two years for
license renewal. Cal-OSHA requires employers to provide training in
Bloodborne Pathogens, Hazard Communication, General Safety, and
Emergency Response to occupationally exposed employees upon hire and at
least annually thereafter (refer to your Exposure Control Plan to
identify occupationally exposed employees). These three courses are
packed with practical information in an enjoyable atmosphere. Bring the
whole office for a productive day of learning and fun.
