Passage of the course exam is required for certification as a Certified or Procedural Quality Assurance Consultant. This course meets the Dental Board of California’s requirements for 19 units of continuing education.  

If a registrant needs to cancel, notifications must be received by CADP at education@cadp.org by 5:00 pm PT on May 15, 2024, to be eligible for a refund of the registration rate minus a $150 processing fee. Starting May 16, 2024, there will be no refunds issued and no shows will forfeit their entire registration fee. Registration closes 7/1/24 or before if course sells out. Onsite registration is not available.

If we need to cancel the QA Course, CADP will notify registrants as soon as feasible. The QA Course cannot be taught virtually, so we would reschedule for later.

There are two categories of consultants being certified by CADP.      

The Procedural QA Consultant is a non-dentist.  This classification requires:  

• A minimum of three years in the dental field (auxiliary, dental assistant, registered dental assistant, licensed dental hygienist, dental office staff, or insurance industry.) 

The Certified QA Consultant is a dentist.  This classification requires:  

• Current valid license to practice dentistry in the United States, without encumbrances.
• Minimum three years experience in the dental field after graduation from dental school, with a statement of clinical practice experience.
• Minimum one-year experience in the insurance industry (auditor, consultant, plan staff, etc.) 

A certificate of course completion (only) is awarded to those attendees who do not meet the basic requirements for certification.  The course completion certificate acknowledges the ability to perform a quality assurance assessment, however, the licensure, clinical, or insurance requirements for credentialing have not been satisfied.  Persons holding this certificate are encouraged to pursue positions, which allow the deficiencies to be corrected.     

CADP requests that all QA Assessments intended for use in the shared assessment project are performed by CADP Certified QA Consultants only.  This request validates the principles of the shared assessment by assuring that all consultants have met minimum requirements.
