Transitioning From Student to Dental Professional
Seminar duration: 1-2 Hours
You’ve spent years in school, reading, studying, completing prerequisites, core courses, pre-clinic, clinic, rotations, practicing, practicing and practicing your classroom knowledge and clinical skills, and then it happens… You graduate!
