Continuing Education Credits
CE for Attending the Conference
All eligible Star of the North attendees will receive 3.0 Elective CEs for attending the conference and visiting the Exhibit Hall, also known as “walking the floor.”
MN Board of Dentistry Requirements
Star of the North will offer fundamental and elective CE hours. Fundamental CE will include clinical subjects as well as courses in Infection Control and other fundamental subjects, including recordkeeping, ethics, patient communication, medical emergencies, HIPAA, and diagnosis and treatment planning.
Verify Your 2024 CE
You can verify your CE credits at the conference when you’re done with your sessions, through our mobile app, or online following the conference.
Transcripts
According to the Minnesota Board of Dentistry rules, it is the responsibility of the individual dental professional to preserve a record of their CE activities. Every attendee who earns CE credits to meet professional development requirements should print a copy of their transcript. Transcripts are available online for up to six months after the meeting (older transcripts can be requested via contacting Eleventh & Gather). File the transcript in your professional development portfolio as proof of your continuing education activities at the Star of the North Meeting.
Tips for Easy Verification
The Star of the North CE Verification system helps you to keep track of your professional development/CE activities at the meeting, but remember these tips! When you register, include the individual state license number of ALL licensed attendees to ensure CE credits are granted for EACH person. Codes are announced at the conclusion of every CE-eligible session. Space will be provided in the onsite program book to record the codes. Partial credit cannot be granted and if you leave a program before the code is announced, you will forfeit any CE credits.
The Minnesota Dental Association is an ADA CERP Recognized Provider. ADA CERP is a service of the American Dental Association to assist dental professionals in identifying quality providers of continuing dental education. ADA CERP does not approve or endorse individual courses or instructors, nor does it imply acceptance of credit hours by boards of dentistry.
