NDAEB Policy Changes Beginning in January 1, 2026

Effective January 1, 2026, all candidates who have not graduated from a dental assisting program accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation of Canada (CDAC) are considered non-registered program graduates and will be required to successfully complete the Clinical Practice Evaluation (CPE) (Part I) BEFORE being granted eligibility for the Theoretical Examination (Part II). Upon successful completion of both the CPE and Exam, the NDAEB Certificate will then be issued.

1. Candidates of existing registered non-accredited dental assisting programs will be bridged and exempted from this policy change until December 31, 2030, as such the CPE requirement will not apply with the NDAEB for issuance of the NDAEB Certificate. The CPE requirement may still apply however if required by a CDARA for provincial licensure/registration. (See the Education section for more details).
2. Candidates who had their credentials assessed by December 31, 2025 and have completed or attempted an initial attempt on the Theoretical Examination but have not yet been awarded the NDAEB Certificate, will continue to follow the former process of completing the Examination first, followed by the CPE in order to be issued the Certificate.
3. Candidates who had their credentials assessed by December 31, 2025, or who were in the process of having their credentials




2026년부터 NDEAB의 새로운 규정에 따라 시험 순서가 변경됩니다.

기존에는 필기시험(Theoretical Examination) → 실기시험(Clinical Practice Evaluation, CPE) 순으로 진행되었으나, 새 규정에서는 실기시험(CPE) → 필기시험 순으로 진행됩니다.

다만, 기존에 필기시험을 한 번이라도 응시한 경험이 있는 응시자는 기존 절차(필기시험 → 실기시험)가 그대로 적용됩니다.

반면, 필기시험에 한 번도 응시한 적이 없는 응시자는2026년부터 CPE를 먼저 통과한 후 필기 시험에 응시할 수 있습니다.
