We believe that providing opportunities for our Supported Doctors to stay on top of the latest technologies and most advanced techniques helps them deliver the best patient care. Heartland Dental assists supported practices in providing and making available educational opportunities to support doctors.
That’s why we offer each Supported Doctor immediate access to more than 200 hours of world-class
continuing education and training opportunities. Widely regarded as the best in the dental industry, these opportunities are often cited by both new and experienced doctors alike as the number one reason to join Heartland Dental.

Whether you are a recent graduate or you have years of experience, you’ll discover an unprecedented
level of commitment to your professional development from the minute you become a Heartland Dental supported doctor. And it all starts with the Year One Doctor Track.
YOUR TRACK TO MASTERY STARTS HERE
During your first year as a Supported Doctor, you’ll be invited to attend the Year One Doctor Track. This hand-crafted program includes two tracks which is customized depending on where you are in your journey as a new graduate or experienced clinician. In addition you will have access to mentors and experts along the way to expedite your learning. All newly Supported Doctors will be enrolled in “Core Essentials”. This includes an interactive calendar to plan which sessions to attend, the courses are quarterly and doctors can easily select and register for Year One sessions via the interactive calendar.
While the number of courses you take in your first year may vary, most Supported Doctors typically follow the main curriculum of 5 key courses. The curriculum follows a blended approach comprising virtual, in-person and on-demand courses to maximize your learning experience and minimize your time out of the office.
