Accreditation vs Title IV

Can anyone clarify the main differences between the accreditation and the title IV certification?

As pass instructor

I feel that with my seasoned background in the dental field as a dental assistant and as a dental instructor at a technical college that I will bring much to the student that will be part of our school.

As an owner of a dental staffing agency

As an owner of a dental staffing agency for over 22 years, prior dental assistant and office management, I feel this background will assist in the operation of our dental assisting training program. Upon graduation of these student's we possess the experience in helping them secure employment with the knowledge of their personality and skills.

Can a School Owner also be an Admissions Representative?

As the owner of a small school with a small staff, I am the person who speaks with prospective students. I am also an instructor with many years of experience in my industry both working and teaching. I feel I can very easily and accurately access prospects to determine if the candidate and my school are a good fit and a good match.

Going Paperless!

In an effort to reduce paper use (and storage!) our institution uses electronic methods whenever possible. I email the catalog and handbook to students. We market online instead of using mailers. And our students will soon be singing enrollment agreements on iPads with a stylus. Less waste, less clutter, more trees! Be Well, Autumn
