ADA CERP Application

The ADA CERP application is designed to assess a continuing dental education provider’s compliance with the ADA CERP Recognition Standards through a review of the provider’s operational policies and procedures and documentation from several CE activities. The application includes a self-assessment component in which the provider identifies its strengths and areas where improvements are needed, based upon defined descriptions of the CERP Standards. The self-assessment is intended to stimulate the organization’s growth as a provider continuing dental education.

Providers are encouraged to dedicate adequate planning time and staff resources to the application process.
