What to Expect During Your First Week at DASA
· DASA Staff
Starting a new program is exciting — and a little nerve-wracking. We get it. That's why we work hard to make your first week welcoming, organized, and focused on setting you up for success.
On day one, you'll meet your instructors and classmates, get a tour of the facility, and receive everything you need to get started. We'll walk through the program schedule, expectations, and the support resources available to you.
From there, you'll dive into the fundamentals — dental terminology, infection control, and an introduction to the tools and equipment you'll be using throughout the program. Don't worry about memorizing it all at once; everything is reinforced through hands-on practice.
Most importantly, you'll quickly realize you're not alone. Our instructors and staff are here to support you, and your classmates are right there learning alongside you. By the end of week one, DASA already feels like home.
