I am always interested in continuing education in the areas of health, wellness, nutrition and mental health. Your course was well written, well organized and helpful in meeting state licensure requirements.
Verified reviewVery well written, easy to digest, time efficient, and straight to the point. Thank you!
Verified reviewI appreciate the convenience of the course being online and accessible through my phone and that it directly reports to CE Broker to support mandated education requirements.
Verified reviewI really loved this information. I was hospitalized last year for almost a month and I noticed multiple medical errors (not being hooked up to my IV multiple times, given wrong medication which caused my sodium to be very low, etc.) which lengthened my stay. I can now define those exact errors and better understand what happened to me. I hate that these medical errors are so common and I appreciate how well laid out your breakdown and categorization of them was.
Verified reviewI am always looking for concise ,thorough, and up to date continuing education, and this course provided exactly what I was looking for. Thank you
Verified reviewEnjoyed this course! It squarely met my license renewal requirement as a physician. It was well-written, and an altogether enjoyable read.
Verified reviewState requirements for New Jersey Registered Dental Assistants
5 Live Hours
All New Jersey Registered Dental Assistants Need (6 mandatory hours, counted within the 10):
3 Hours CPR with hands-on certification (In person only, webinars and distance learning do not count)
1 Hour Prescription Opioids
Some New Jersey Dental Assistants Also Need:
3 Hours Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen Analgesia Monitoring Recertification (our course covers 2 of the 3 hours) - If monitoring nitrous oxide/oxygen, plus current Basic or Advanced Cardiac Life Support (Every Other Renewal, In Addition to Your 10 Hours)
12 Hours DANB Continuing Dental Education every year - If holding DANB certification (Required for DANB Certification, Not State-Mandated)
Start with the New Jersey registered dental assistant CE package .
How many CE hours do New Jersey registered dental assistants need?
New Jersey requires CE only for its two registered tiers, the Registered Dental Assistant (RDA) and the Limited Registered Dental Assistant in Orthodontics (LRDAO). Each completes 10 hours of continuing education every 2 years, and registrations renew December 31 of even-numbered years. Your next renewal is December 31, 2026. Six hours are mandatory topics and the other 4 are general dental assisting CE ( N.J.A.C. 13:30-5.3 ; New Jersey State Board of Dentistry ). An unregistered dental assistant who works chairside under a dentist's direct supervision holds no Board credential and owes New Jersey no CE. Start with the New Jersey registered dental assistant CE package . Looking for a different license? See New Jersey dentist CE and New Jersey dental hygienist CE .
Which CE topics are required for New Jersey registered dental assistants?
Every renewal you need 3 hours of hands-on CPR, 1 hour of professional ethics and New Jersey law , 1 hour of infection control and prevention and 1 hour of prescription opioids , all counted within the 10 ( New Jersey State Board of Dentistry CE guide ). CPR must be an in-person course with hands-on certification. An assistant who monitors nitrous oxide/oxygen analgesia also completes a 3-hour nitrous oxide monitoring course every other renewal period, in addition to the 10 hours, and holds current Basic or Advanced Cardiac Life Support certification ( N.J.A.C. 13:30-2.4 ). An assistant with DANB certification separately owes DANB 12 CDE credits every year, which is a DANB requirement and not a New Jersey mandate ( DANB ).
Does New Jersey accept AGD PACE credit?
New Jersey does not publish an approved-sponsor list for assistant CE. The Board requires proof of completion for every course, and for distance learning a post-test ( New Jersey State Board of Dentistry CE guide ). AchieveCE is an AGD PACE approved provider (ID# 386503). Every AchieveCE course ends with a post-test and a certificate of completion.
Does New Jersey audit registered dental assistant CE?
The Board can review your CE records, so keep proof of completion for every course, including post-test proof for distance learning. Records are kept for two full biennial periods from the date of completion ( New Jersey State Board of Dentistry ). Assistants renew through the state's online licensing portal, and there is nothing to submit through a third-party tracker. Your AchieveCE certificate is available the moment you finish a course, and AchieveCE reports your completions to AGD PACE within 24 business hours. Our support team is on live chat, email, and phone, 7 days a week.
Do New Jersey registered dental assistants need live CE?
In effect, yes. Electronic-media distance learning is capped at 5 of the 10 hours, so the other 5 must be live or in person. Live, interactive webinars count as in-person sessions. Recorded webinars without a post-test do not count at all ( New Jersey State Board of Dentistry CE guide ). Our online package covers the distance learning portion. Add live CE through our live webinars and the Dentistry Advanced membership .
Do new registrants need CE for their first New Jersey renewal?
Yes, the full amount. A newly registered RDA or LRDAO owes all 10 hours, mandatory hours included, at the first renewal regardless of when registration was first obtained or when you graduated from a dental assisting program ( New Jersey State Board of Dentistry CE guide ).
