ADSA Observation Program: Expression of Interest for Clinicians
This 'Dentist for a Day' ADSA initiative allows students all over Australia to connect with and shadow practicing dentists.

Dentists will have the opportunity to mentor a student for a day, furthering their learning and providing them with enriching exposure to a day in the life of a practicing clinician. This is a fulfilling and easy way to impart clinical knowledge and tips to future dental or oral health students.

This application form is open every month and you will have the opportunity to volunteer your time according to what suits you best - we welcome both regular and casual or one-off participation. It's up to you how many students you would like to take, which month/s, as well as what type of student you wish to invite into your practice for the day. The day of the observation period is to be agreed upon by the student and dentist.

Both parties MUST read the Student & Clinic Program Guidelines prior to commencement of this program, to understand the expectations set for safety and professionalism.
