Australian Dental Association NSW Branch has announced a first-time strategic partnership with Henry Schein, Australia’s largest dental product distributor, aimed to supply state-of-the-art dental technology and equipment to ADA members and the wider dental community for continuing education and to ensure they are leading the way in oral health practices.
ADA NSW is currently undertaking clinical facility improvements, including new treatment centres and an entirely new learning lab focused on digital dentistry and digital workflows, new AI integration tools, scanners and 3D printers.
In the past financial year, 4399 dental professionals attended ADA NSW CPD courses with 61 per cent of registrations coming from returning participants.
The partnership aims to elevate the ADA NSW clinic’s educational standards and provide more structured and robust courses that are at the forefront of oral health education. Henry Schein is committed to providing the latest equipment and technology, supporting educational initiatives and philanthropic endeavours that benefit the wider community.
“At the heart of this partnership lies a shared commitment to helping dental professionals with their professional development and learning by increasing access to the highest quality CPD courses in a state-of-the-art training environment,” ADA NSW president Dr Dominic Aouad said.
“We are currently investing in modernising our learning spaces and this kind of partnership helps us to stay at the forefront in this.
“ADA NSW has a new website launching in December 2024 with plans for an LMS to integrate a more hybrid model in how we deliver learning.”
To reach even more dental professionals, ADA NSW will also have access to Henry Schein’s Dental Education Hub to increase awareness of the association’s well-regarded CPD program.
