HI all,
The career school that I work for is looking to hire a Dental Assisting Instructor.This job opening is in Dallas, Texas. If anyone is interested do email me or message me. I am one of the other instructors in this career school and am a Internationally trained Dentist myself. Cheers.
 
Again, the job opening is only in Dallas, Texas. As far as qualification goes, If you are a dentist, you are already qualified. If you have any prior work experience as a dental assistant, it would be a bonus. Again, the job is a teaching job. (both theory and LAb)
 
Is this career school ADA accredited?
 
Career Schools do not require ADA accredition.
It is accredited by TWC

It may not be required, but why hasn't the school been ADA accredited?

Edit : Is it approved by the TSBDE atleast?
 
Do email me at [email protected] if u have any inquiries/questions regarding this job. Again, this is NOT a dental school, it is a dental assisting school which has all the required accredit ions as required by the state.

Right. Just out of curiosity, doesn't the Southeastern Career Institute need to be TSBDE approved for the students to be eligible to be legal dental assistants in the state of Texas?

well if its not then wont the state close it down?? The links states the schools at which which the state exam can taken. The list of course providers are different. hope this helps.

Exactly, that is my question. When I read the Texas State Board website for a friend of mine, it mentioned only certain schools that are approved course providers for dental assisting students. The 'career school' of concern to her was not in the list. So apparently, we found out that she cannot legally be a dental assistant who takes radiographs if she hasn't gone thorugh on of the approved courses. So my question is what do the students who take the course at your school? Do they get to take the DANB radiation certificate exam and get the Texas license to take radiographs?

Q. How do I know if I need to register as a dental assistant?

A. Only those assistants who take radiographs are required to register.
