Dental Assistant Earn While You Learn Training
Dental assistants play a vital role in any dental care team, often handling a variety of tasks from assisting with treatment procedures to administrative duties. This earn-while-you-learn training helps you gain the technical skills needed as a dental assistant. Upon successful completion of one year of training, you will receive a certificate of completion of training, a guaranteed wage increase, and can pursue a fulfilling and rewarding career path with increased responsibilities and pay along the way.
Applications are no longer being accepted for the December training. Our next Dental Assistant Earn While You Learn training is expected to begin in Spring 2025. Check back in early 2025 for more details. Thank you for your interest!
We’re looking for candidates who love working with people, helping our community and are good with their hands. Candidates must be 17 years or older and should have an interest in healthcare and working with the public.
Candidates selected for consideration will be offered an in-person interview. Successful candidates will experience classroom learning, observation, and hands-on training. After a few months, Dental Assistant trainees start to master their skills by assisting dentists independently.
If selected for training, you will be hired as a UR employee. You will receive full-time pay and benefits, including paid vacation and holidays, health insurance and retirement plans — all while you gain experience as a Dental Assistant.
