"When I first applied to GDCA I had no knowledge of what being a dental assistant entailed. Other than knowing I wanted to work with people hands on, I was ready to learn something new! When I graduated 10 weeks later in January of 2007, I left with a passion for the dental field, a full understanding of what was expected of me, and actual hands on practice. They gave me all the tools I needed to start a great career. I have been employed as a dental assistant for the past two years and I have loved every minute of it!" -- Erika K.

"I attended GDCA because it was affordable and it fit into my schedule. I am a wife who at the time had a full time job and was raising two kids. Dr. Heil and Mrs. Cindy were great teachers who taught us the basic skills and gave me the confidence I needed to be able to go out and find the job that I wanted. Two months after graduation I found a job that was close to home and had great pay and benefits. That was over a year ago, I am still working and learning new skills every day. I can say that I am truly happy that I chose GDCA for my training." -- Temika A.

"Just freshly out of high school, I had no idea how to obtain a promising career without going to college. I was just working full time in retail and was basically stuck going nowhere! But when an acquaintance of mine mentioned the program at Gwinnett Dental Career Academy, I knew I could achieve having a career in the dental field easily. The program allowed me to be able to maintain my job and spend time with my family. Unlike many colleges that teach only through textbook, GDCA made it fairly easy to learn since everything was so hands on! Not to mention it's 10X less than the cost of college tuition. Since the class size is limited it allows everyone the chance to comprehend and gives Mrs. Cindy the chance to focus on each individual. She truly is passionate and dedicated to her dental career, which inspires me to strive for what I know I am capable of. I am grateful that Dr. Heil sees the opportunity to share her passion with individuals that are eager to learn and I'm so appreciative of the opportunity that GDCA has given me! -- Lizzie K.

"Being a graduate of Emory University majoring in Psychology, you would think I would have wanted to continue on with my Psychology degree. Believe it or not, I wanted to try something different and little did I know it would be a career change as well. GDCA definitely helped me decide on a career in dentistry due to the great staff and hands on learning it offers. Cindy is a fantastic, good-hearted instructor, and having Dr. Heil on site was very helpful. They are always willing to help you perfect your skills. I've been a dental assistant in an office in John's Creek for 2 months now, and I love every minute of it. -- Samin F.
