Continuing Education (CE) Programme
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, please consider this as a tentative Global Continuing Education (CE) Programme schedule.
Development through continuing education is an essential part of the dental profession. It is an important aspect of modern evidence-based dental practice. Furthermore, it is essential that dentists maintain an up-to-date clinical and theoretical knowledge of the art and science of dentistry.
To this end, FDI's Education Committee organizes a number of events to support this requisite every year. These events are categorized by geographical region and compiled into a Global Continuing Education Programme listed below.
All FDI CE Programme events are flagged with this logo.
This logo insures that:
- The lectures flagged with the logo have been organized by a FDI CE Regional Director in collaboration with the local organizer
- The speakers are recognized FDI international experts
- The programme of lectures has been reviewed by the FDI Education Committee
