The Canadian Alliance of Dental Technology Regulators (CADTR) and the College of Dental Technologists of Alberta (CDTA) are excited to announce an opportunity for qualified vendors to contribute to the development of a new Modular, Single-Discipline Performance-Based Assessment (PBA).
This project will support Alberta’s legislated registration pathways for Dental Technicians, allowing applicants to demonstrate competence in specific practice areas, including:
