Alabama Dental Hygiene Program
Instructor Courses
(2026-2027 Class)
The Board of Dental Examiners of Alabama is pleased to present the Alabama Dental Hygiene Program (ADHP) Instructor Course. This course is designed for those dentists wishing to sponsor an ADHP student in the 2026-2027 program, OR for those dentists who need to maintain a current instructor certification to continue to sponsor a current ADHP student. If you are sponsoring a student in the 2025-2026 program and your instructor certification expires prior to the February 2026 course, you must attend the November 1, 2025, course to recertify. Instructor certification is valid for 3 years from the date of the course.
Note: Your ADHP Instructor Certification must remain active during the full term of your sponsored ADHP student.
