I attended WJCJ Dental Hygiene program from 1993-1995. I cannot say enough good things about what this program taught me. If a program is "easy" then you better watch out because the likeliness of passing your boards are slim. I cannot thank the instructors enough for being tough, but fair at the same time. I highly recommend this program to anyone considering Dental Hygiene as their career.
This program is disappointing to say the least. You will have to teach yourself in areas you’ve never even touched on before. Novosad is an amazing instructor... the others just make things harder for you to succeed and you will have to teach yourself on your own. I feel like the teaching is lazy here and you will be better off attending elsewhere.
