  • THIS IS THE BEST PROGRAM. I was weary about starting a career in dental assisting, but thankfully I did and chose APEX. I even landed a job before finishing school. I learned so much and got a lot of hands on experience within the 10 weeks of going to school. This program not only gave me a great education but it brought me the best of friends! 10/10!!

  • Great school with great classmates. Love that it's an accelerated course, so no need to spend months to complete. Loved my instructors, they made sure we understood what we were learning before moving on, enjoyed the hands on experience as well. Would highly recommend the course to anyone looking to become a dental assistant.

  • I honestly loved it! Everyone was so nice and the instructors helped in any way they could! I also really loved that I didn’t have to worry about my work schedule because class was only one day during the week! I would definitely recommend Apex to anybody interested in dental assisting or wanting to get a start in the dental field!
