Dental Ed Policies

COVID-19 Pandemic Policies

​Sea to Sky Dental Ed is committed to the safety and well-being of everyone we work with. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic all public and private courses scheduled will follow both provincial and federal health guidelines for physical distancing, the use of masks, and class sizes. The courses may need to be suspended on short notice if we are directed to by the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC). Courses are not cancelled but instead will be postponed with new dates scheduled once business resumes. We hope to see the continued lifting of health mandate policies as has now started to happen in 2022.

Dental-Ed will work with clients on a one-on-one basis in a fair manner during this period to resolve any issues.

Course Policies

Any ancillary costs related to the student taking a class (including but not limited to air travel, travel costs, hotels, per-diems, mileage, lost employee wages or salary) are the responsibility of the student and/or their employer. If a class is cancelled, Dental Ed Inc’s liability is limited to the amount of the registration fee only.
