"Prior to joining Risio and attending the Dental Assisting course, I was working as a dental administrator for over three years. Occasionally, I would help with processing instruments through sterilization and operatory turnovers. The longer that I was in the field, the more I had the desire to grow and expand my duties. I knew that I wanted to be more hands-on with patient care and increase my clinical knowledge.
Unsure of how I would be able to pursue a dental assisting certificate without compromising my employment left me discouraged. I had seen the Risio advertisements many times but I was apprehensive… To be honest, it was scary because it sounded too good to be true. To my relief and as a great surprise, it was exactly as it was promised to be (and more).
I am a mother of two young kids, if not for Risio, it would have been impossible to attend school and to keep working. This program helped me attain my goal of becoming an RDA, gave me the utmost confidence and increased my value within my practice. This course forces you to be hands-on with your learning. For people like me, who are visual learners, this is the perfect program.
Since completing the program, I am able to understand more in depth concepts regarding patient treatment. I am able to contribute even more as a team member. Because of my newly acquired skills and knowledge, I was recently promoted to Office Manager. I am still able to provide support to my teammates but in a different way, it is easier to help someone when you have walked in their shoes."
