How does CE credit work? How do I know the number of hours I earn with each course?

The New Orleans Dental Conference & LDA Annual Session provides one hour of credit for each hour of lecture.

PLEASE NOTE:  This is a new method of providing continuing education credit.

For Louisiana dentists, hygienists and technicians: At the conclusion of each session, a unique code will be announced that corresponds to that specific course.  You will record that code on your continuing education form.  The unique code number will verify attendance and serve as your CE credit.

For AGD members, a special form may be picked up from the Room Monitor at the conclusion of the lecture or go to the Registration Area.  The form should be mailed to:

Dental Education Service Assistant
Academy of General Dentistry
211 E. Chicago Ave, Ste. #900
Chicago, IL  60611
