Correct answer: ACommission on Dental Accreditation of Canada (CDAC)

The Commission on Dental Accreditation of Canada (CDAC) is responsible for accrediting dental, dental hygiene, dental assisting, and dental specialty education programs in Canada. Graduation from a CDAC-accredited dental program allows direct access to the NDEB certification process without requiring the Equivalency Process. The NDEB conducts the certification examinations. Provincial dental regulatory authorities (e.g., RCDSO) grant licenses to practice.
