State online CE

Indiana online dental CE

For online dental CE in Indiana, Dentovio's sourced CE notes say: Live-vs-self-study: at least HALF of the required minimum hours must be from live presentations or live workshops (IC 25-14-3-8); home-study by an approved organization earns the same credit as college courses. Confirm current live, webinar, correspondence, home-study, and self-study caps with the Indiana dental board before enrolling.

Dental assistant

No state CE requirement (Indiana dental assistants are not separately licensed; radiology-permitted assistants and EFDA/CDA credentials carry their own certification-maintenance rules, but the state board sets no assistant CE hours)

Dental assistant online CE notes

Before choosing online CE

  1. Confirm whether live webinars count differently from self-paced online courses.
  2. Check any cap on correspondence, home-study, self-study, or asynchronous hours.
  3. Verify the course provider is accepted by the board for your license type.
  4. Keep certificates and completion records in the format required for audit.
