Online continuing dental education
Article Abstract:
Continuing dental education (CDE) courses on the Internet can help dentists maintain their clinical skills, but the fees charged and educational credits offered should be standardized. Researchers evaluated 157 online dental courses offered by 32 organizations. Most providers were universities or companies. Locating the sites was difficult, and most did not specify the dental boards that accepted the credits offered, the authors of the course, or the last date they were updated. Courses offered from 3 minutes to 2 hours of CDE credit, and charged $0-25 per credit hour.
