Program Overview

Camosun Certified Dental Assistants have a reputation for providing excellent service. For 40 years we have been educating dental assistants to the highest standards. You’ll learn how to prepare for and provide chair-side support to assist dentists and clients in diagnostic/assessment, restorative, and specialty procedures as well as independent skills and duties.

Certified Dental Assistants provide a vital health care service.
The Certified Dental Assistant (CDA) program is fast paced, practical, hands-on and simulates the work environment. The program provides six weeks of practicum experience in a dental office to provide you with hands-on experience to be job-ready when you graduate. The CDA program is fully accredited nationally and graduates have performed extremely well on the national board exam.

Hands-on learning
The field of dentistry is becoming increasingly sophisticated and technological.
In the 10 month Certified Dental Assistant program you’ll participate extensively in hands–on clinical activities. You’ll learn specific skills to assist the dentist as well as independent duties such as taking dental x-rays, impressions of teeth, placing dental dam and providing preventive care. Providing a wide variety of skills makes the job very satisfying.
