Student stories
“EFDAA’s RDAEF2 program is amazing. The classes were smaller, I had lots of time with the instructor, and I passed the state board the first time.”
“I work full time and have a family. I needed a course that offered online or home-study lectures, and I was thrilled to find EFDAA.”
“The instruction is superb, with knowledgeable instructors—and I know because I am a dental assistant educator.”
