Oral Systemic Educator certificate for RDHs certification

Oral Systemic Educator Certificate Program™ Achieves Accreditation Through ANAB

A first in all of dentistry for a certificate program to meet both AGD PACE and ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB) standards. The Oral Systemic Educator Certificate Program™ provides Registered Dental Hygienists with more comprehensive education than traditional dental CE offers, and is far more focused and affordable than a university degree. Hospitals and healthcare systems expect accreditation as a mark of quality and excellence, so NNHH is addressing an educational workforce gap, while creating new career opportunities for RDHs.
