Health care is the Lehigh Valley’s largest employment sector. With our Dental Assistant course, you can join the region’s ranks of nearly 60,000 well-paid, in-demand health care workers in as little as 200 hours.

Lehigh Career & Technical Institute’s newest Adult Education course offers the specialized training job seekers need to launch or advance careers in dental medicine. Students in our Dental Assistant course learn to maintain a safe, clean work environment for dentists, assist dentists with patient procedures and a variety of office and laboratory duties. They also have an opportunity to earn big.

The annual salary range for medical and dental assistants is $35,000 to $50,000 and employers are looking to hire them. There were more than 500 local job postings for the positions last year!

The Dental Assistant course is offered at night, so adult students can meet their personal obligations while pursuing professional goals. Plus, LCTI offers scholarships for students facing financial hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic and we’re approved for a variety of financial aid sources.
