Student Membership Grant

In September of each year, the CDABC issues an invitation to the educational institutions (that educate future certified dental assistants) to participate in our student membership drive. The CDA program that has the highest percentage of enrolment of CDABC student members on November 30 will receive a grant of $100 to be used for graduation. CDABC will contact the CDA program(s) with the highest percentage of student membership and make arrangements to allow for a Board member or staff person to attend to present the Grant on behalf of the Board of Directors.
