Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
1.
How many
DVD Quarterly issues do I receive?
All DVD Quarterly subscriptions are for a one-year period
beginning from the date that your new subscription or renewal is
received. Four DVD issues per one-year subscription will be mailed
to you. Issues are mailed quarterly, usually in March, June,
September and December.
2.
How does
the DVD Quarterly work in my home?
The DVD Quarterly works in your DVD player whether it is a
portable unit, connected to your television set or played on a
DVD-equipped personal computer. Use it exactly as you would for
loading and watching a movie: use the menu buttons, such as play,
scene selection, stop.
3.
What kinds
of programming or topics are provided on the DVDs?
Each issue of the DVD Quarterly contains five
to seven 25-45 minute presentations, usually filmed in the dental
operatory utilizing a two or three camera set up. Programming is
clinically or practice management oriented to provide information on
the latest materials and techniques essential in your daily dental
hygiene practice.
Clinical topics include periodontics, digital imaging, laser
cleaning, preventative care, infection control and others. Practice
management related topics include ergonomics, nutrition, wellness,
communication and others.
4.
How does
the interactive Q & A component work?
Each presentation or segment is followed by a number of multiple
choice questions which must be completed before proceeding. A
correct answer automatically permits you to proceed to the next
question. An incorrect answer returns you to the one-to-two minute
segment of the program where that information was provided. After a
quick review of the information, you are returned to the next
question or to the main menu.
5.
May I
receive CE credits by subscribing to the DVD Quarterly?
Each of the four DVD Quarterly issues published
per year consists of five to seven presentations or segments
totaling three hours of material. Therefore, subscribers receive 12
hours of Continuing Education annually.
Following your viewing of each DVD Quarterly issue, you may
complete a multiple choice test on line through the DVD Quarterly
website or on the postcard provided. A Certificate of Participation
will be provided to you either on line instantly or through the mail
in 10 to 15 days after receipt at the Quarterly office. This
Certificate may then be submitted to your provincial regulatory body
for credit in the same manner as certificates from other forms of CE
(such as symposia or meetings).
6. May I share the DVD Quarterly
with my colleagues?
You may share the disks and information with your colleagues.
However, only the individual DVD Quarterly subscriber is
eligible to receive Certificates of Participation in this continuing
education programming.
