Academy Online Continuum - Starts on October 6th

Greetings friends,

10 years ago when cerecdoctors.com was started, it changed the face of dental education.  cerecdoctors.com was one of the first websites in the dental space that used online videos to help supplement information and content that was being taught in the hands on courses.  The result as you all know is the creation of what we have today, the largest online community for CEREC owners in the world with access to more videos, content and information than anywhere on the planet.

Starting tomorrow, we are going to once again raise the bar of how information is shared for CEREC owners with our Academy online continuum.  The goal of the continuum is to have weekly "classes" focused on different disciplines of dentistry in an effort to create a comprehensive database of information for users.

We will start with implantology and then move on to other dental disciplines such as orthodontics, occlusion, esthetics, endodontics and more. Each session will be roughly 25 minutes in lenght followed by a Q&A and each session will be archived for future access and each session will be eligible for CE credits.  

Members of the Academy will receive an invite tomorrow for the first session. The first session will be an introductory session where we discuss the logistics of the online continuum - goals of the sessions, accessing archived sessions, how to get CE etc etc.  After that, we will dive right into the continuum with CEREC Guide 2.  The majority of the implant sessions will be led by Dr. Farhad Boltchi but we will also have guest faculty as appropriate.  

Listed below is an agenda for all the items we will cover with the implant portion of the continuum.  The continuum is included as part of your Academy benefit package.  If you have any addtional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at academy@cerecdoctors.com

Each session as mentioned is roughly 25 minutes so that we can get to the meat of the information quickly and we will allow for a Q&A as well.  Please know that the outline below is somewhat fluid and we will adjust it as needed based on the needs of the presenters to get their information across.

Im excited to have Farhad lead this continuum because anyone who has heard him speak and learned from him knows that he is a wealth of information on the subject of implant dentistry.
