The Commission for Continuing Education Provider Recognition (CCEPR) is an agency of the American Dental Association with the authority to formulate and adopt requirements, guidelines and procedures for the recognition of continuing dental education providers, and to approve providers that meet rigorous standards for quality.
Established by the ADA in 2014, the Commission oversees the ADA Continuing Education Recognition Program (CERP).
CCEPR is structured to include broad input from those dental groups with an interest in continuing dental education at the policy-setting level. Members of the Commission are selected in accordance with the Rules of the Commission for Continuing Education Provider Recognition and the Constitution and Bylaws and the Governance and Organizational Manual of the American Dental Association.
Mission:
CCEPR serves the public, the dental profession and other healthcare providers by developing and implementing standards that promote excellence in continuing dental education to support professional competence and continuous improvement of patient care.
Vision:
ADA CERP will be the globally accepted program for recognizing providers of quality continuing dental education.
