Dental Tribune U.S. Edition

C.E. Online DENTAL TRIBUNE | January/February 201110A Coming into its second year, the Dental Tribune Study Club (DTSC) at www.DTStudyClub.com celebrates its members and its accomplishments and looks forward to the future. Orga- nizers have planned events both online and offline across the globe. DTSC is an educational-based online community that inspires new possibilities while creating higher expectations in online learning. A participant of a recent live webinar summed it up by offering: “The live and interactive webi- nar enabled me to ask the speaker questions and share with colleagues around the world. The international faculty exposes me to global opinion leaders, who aren’t really accessible to experience live. Plus, I did this in my pajamas!” (M.R., Ontario, Canada) Yet, learning from the convenience of your own home or practice isn’t the only benefit of DTSC. Another past participant commented: “Having the opportunity to learn with my assistants and entire team gave us an opportunity to learn together, which we never had. We are discovering useful tools and I am con- fident all of our procedures will run much smoother as a result.” (Dr. G.F., Colorado) Individual webinars DTSC offers international C.E.- accredited lectures that are live and interactive, as well as archived ones that bring local events to global audi- ences. Please check out the C.E. list- ing under the menu option “Online Courses.” If you do not see what you were looking for, please e-mail Julia Weh- kamp at j.wehkamp@dtstudyclub.com with a course topic and/or speaker recommendations. ‘Getting started in …’ In the “Getting started in …” lecture series, leading specialists provide a general overview of a selected field of dentistry for those who are interested in “getting started in” that area. Each “Getting started in…” pro- gram includes a number of lectures that provide a thorough introduction to the techniques, products and prac- tice management impact in that field of dentistry.
