Learn in Real Time

Watch the course via live streaming with presenters and slides on your screen – all from the comfort of your home or office.

Polling

Test your comprehension with interactive polling software that tracks your responses, allowing instructors to modify their lectures accordingly.

Q&A

DOCS faculty members work in the background during each class to moderate and monitor questions you submit digitally. Answers are either provided immediately for all to see or held until the presenter can address them personally.

What to Expect

Pre-Course Learning

Each program has pre-course content that must be completed online before the Interactive (((LIVE))) Streaming event. The hours involved will depend on the course selected. You’ll receive login instructions via email to access the pre-course videos on DOCSLiveStream.com.

Office Hours

A vital part of your educational experience is interactive two-way video sessions. Each Office Hour corresponds to online study modules and will provide personalized support to help you master the material. DOCS faculty interacts live with small groups of participants, allowing you to not only get your questions answered but see what queries others may have. You’ll engage in active conversations that are stimulating, supportive, and educational.

Tech Support

Technical requirements include a desktop or laptop computer with audio and video capabilities (like a webcam), a stable high-speed internet connection, and Adobe Reader to view handouts and articles. Our full-time Tech Support staff will be waiting in the wings to quickly address any issues you may encounter. (A phone or tablet such as iPad and Kindle is not permitted.)

Regulatory Support

The DOCS Regulatory Attorney will be available during lunch and after each Interactive (((LIVE))) Streaming session to answer questions and address concerns regarding permits, certificates, and the renewal process.

Course Materials

You and any registered team members will be sent by mail all materials necessary to complete your course, including:

  • Expansive hard-copy binders designed for you to follow the lecture page-by-page and use as a reference manual after training.
  • Tech requirements and detailed instructions for joining each session on the live-stream portal.
  • An easy-to-follow schedule and checklist to keep participants on track.
  • Snacks and other surprises to make your learning fun!

What's in the Box?

Course Binder (digital)

If you would like a digital copy of the Course Binder, please contact our Customer Loyalty Representatives.

CE Letters

An important component of the Interactive Live Streaming system is the continuing education credits it entitles you to receive. 

Here’s what you need to know about the CE credits you’ll earn:

  1. Within two weeks, we will email CE certificates to those who complete all elements of their courses (online pre-course, Office Hours, and Live Streaming days). These vary from state to state in terms of what they need in writing, and we will prepare your credits to conform to your state’s requirements.
  2. If you are an Academy of General Dentistry member and would like us to submit your credits to the AGD, please provide your AGD membership number.

Note: Some states, such as California, require that the CE letter be provided directly from us to receive proper credit. If you have any questions about your state’s specific requirements, please ask David Palmer, Esq., our Regulatory Counsel, during scheduled regulatory Office Hour sessions.

Train Your Team

Bringing your team to a DOCS Interactive (((Live))) Streaming event is an investment in the health and longevity of your sedation practice. When they are fully trained and on board with implementing sedation in your practice, success is virtually guaranteed.

Depending on the course, team members will join their doctor in the program, attend specific team breakout sections, or a combination of both. Speak with a Course Advisor for more information. All team members will earn CE for attending. 

Attire

Casual attire is appropriate for the course.

Conference Newsletter

We’ll be emailing an edition of the DOCS Community Digest to all attendees after the conclusion of the event, which will include information on where you can access the course recordings, as well as exclusive event-only offers.
