1
00:00:02,049 --> 00:00:04,800
Is by the American Dental Association . 

2
00:00:04,809 --> 00:00:07,480
It's an accredited body . It's called 

3
00:00:07,489 --> 00:00:10,199
the Commission of Dental Accreditation . 

4
00:00:10,210 --> 00:00:13,180
So it's a body that comes in and it 

5
00:00:13,189 --> 00:00:15,356
goes over the standards that we , that 

6
00:00:15,356 --> 00:00:17,139
we discussed . And within those 

7
00:00:17,149 --> 00:00:19,620
standards , it evaluates the program 

8
00:00:19,629 --> 00:00:21,629
from the bottom up . You're talking 

9
00:00:21,629 --> 00:00:23,740
about the curriculum , you're talking 

10
00:00:23,740 --> 00:00:25,629
about scholarly activity , you're 

11
00:00:25,629 --> 00:00:27,851
talking about the credentials and the , 

12
00:00:27,851 --> 00:00:30,530
and , and the ability to have uh what 

13
00:00:30,540 --> 00:00:32,707
our residents are doing at that time , 

14
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:35,527
I went through a Cota accreditation as 

15
00:00:35,527 --> 00:00:37,880
1/4 year resident . And so now being on 

16
00:00:37,889 --> 00:00:40,056
the other side of staff , it's good to 

17
00:00:40,056 --> 00:00:42,209
go and see what makes these 

18
00:00:42,220 --> 00:00:44,331
accreditations and how much work goes 

19
00:00:44,331 --> 00:00:46,450
behind the scenes . This is really a 

20
00:00:46,459 --> 00:00:48,799
measuring stick for us , our program 

21
00:00:48,810 --> 00:00:51,069
and our residency as a whole . And so 

22
00:00:51,810 --> 00:00:54,970
we received really good remarks from 

23
00:00:54,979 --> 00:00:57,257
everything without any recommendations , 

24
00:00:57,257 --> 00:00:59,368
which is a real sign that we're doing 

25
00:00:59,368 --> 00:00:59,849
things correctly .
