Century Dental Associates
An EFDA Instructional Site

Century Dental Associates is proud to partner with Central Penn College as an official instructional site for their Expanded Function Dental Assistant (EFDA) Certificate Program.

A Real-World Learning Environment

The EFDA program is a six-month, blended program designed for working dental professionals. Coursework is completed fully online, with once-a-week Saturday labs focused on hands-on clinical skills. By hosting lab sessions here in Scranton, students in Northeastern Pennsylvania can complete their required hands-on training close to home — no travel to Central Pennsylvania required.

This expansion reflects Central Penn College’s continued commitment to increasing access, flexibility, and convenience for students pursuing advanced credentials in high-demand healthcare fields.

Century Dental Associates brings decades of clinical experience and a strong reputation for patient-centered care to this partnership, providing an ideal real-world learning environment for EFDA students. Known for its commitment to advanced dental techniques, modern technology, and professional excellence, Century Dental Associates offers a hands-on setting that reinforces practical skill development and industry standards. This collaboration ensures students gain meaningful clinical experience while benefiting from a trusted dental practice deeply rooted in the Northeastern Pennsylvania community.
