Where do I start the school staff is exceptional. I enjoyed every classroom and clinical moment. In my 12 weeks course there was never a time I felt lost or on my own. Ms Lisa, Jacqui(my instructor) and Whittney everyone was very knowledgeable and willing to help. I recommend ASDA if you are looking for a great start in the dental field this is the place to beπŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰

I really enjoyed my experience at ASDA! I walked in about a month before my start date and was greeted ny CEO Lisa, and instructor Whittney who were both very pleasant and willing to help me begin the process of signing up for the program. Everyone was very supportive from day one and I obtained employment within two weeks of graduating! Jacqueline is very experienced, knowledgeable, and overall great person to learn from. I would recommend ASDA to anyone needing support, simple curriculum, and instructors that are able to take time out to assist you on your career path to Dental Assisting 😊.

I graduated in 2008. I went through a divorce at a young age and was pregnant with my third baby. I was working at a daycare, barely making it. I seen the ad for β€œ12 weeks to a better life!” So I went for it. I ended up having my baby part way through. I gave birth on Friday and was back to class that Monday! I knew I had to make a better life for my babies.I ended up finding an office who was looking for a front office treatment coordinator. It was so much easier since I already knew dental from my β€œ12 weeks to a better life” program! 1.5 years following graduation, I was managing a dental office. I have now been managing this office for 11 years! I am able to support my family and enjoy living life!What are you waiting for?

I am a case manager and assist youths with enrolling in the dental assisting program at this school. The communication with the school is great. Any questions or concerns I have, the school is quick to respond. The students that have completed the program state that they learned the skill set needed to be a dental assistant, the school provided support anytime is was needed and the school followed CDC guidelines during the pandemic to keep the students safe!

Highly recommend this school! All the teachers and staff are friendly and make class fun. My teacher Brittany not only made every class fun, but she also went out of her way to help everyone understand. I found an internship right after class ended and my office hired me as a full time DA and I starting off making really good money! :)

THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO!!!!I got a job offered while taking this school and I have to say they got me where I need to be. It is crazy to have this school at that price because it should be way more expensive. They offer everything I need and more.Whitney is the best.

I started my dental assistant journey at Estrella community college, I was discouraged after the first class where it didn’t seem like it would be hands on at all. So I looked for a new school and found AZ school of Dental Assistants- I spoke with Lisa on the phone and she was very pleasant and helpful and I set up a time to go tour the school. First of all I love Lisa she is a very bright positive light. I loved the school and I signed up that day. There was no pressure I just felt comfortable. The 12 weeks was really amazing and a time in my life I will never forget- it was fun and Britt and Lisa became my friends not just the instructors. The learning was very hands on, the material was informative and easy to learn. I did my internship at a dentist in Buckeye and enjoyed it. I moved out of state and worked in Utah as a dental assistant for some time before moving back to Arizona. These ladies make it very fun to learn.... and they will help you with anything they can career wise- I have since chosen a different career path (family business lol) but still to this day Lisa will call me and let me know when dentists in my area are hiring lol - she wants nothing but the best for her students and if you are serious about looking into this career, go check the school out, meet Lisa and Brittnee and you won’t regret it.

I really want to express my experience about when I had attended Arizona School of Dental Assisting it was life changing for me. Years back I was in a place in my life that I knew was not the ideal way of how I wanted to spend the rest of my life. So I made the decision of attending this school as Lisa the President was my biggest support system along with motivating me to believe in myself. The class was small and I felt more of a one on one experience with the instructor. Anytime I felt the need to talk to Lisa she was there for me. I now have so many opportunities that have opened up for me because I made the best decision for me and my family. I have to thank Lisa and Arizona School of Dental Assisting for helping me succeed and believing in me. I recommend anybody who wants a career in the dental field to definitely follow your dream and choose Arizona School of Dental Assisting

Choosing this school to train me in the dental assisting field was the best decision I could have possibly made. Not only is the staff friendly, knowledgeable and motivating but they also work hard at locating and informing the students of upcoming job placements. The instructor took the time to make sure that I was comprehending all the intricate detail that goes into this field and always did so with a smile. Im confident in the education I received while attending The ASDA and have no doubt that I will secure a great job. Thank you to everyone at this amazing school for helping me along my journey to a better career. I couldnt have done it without you.

I would like to start with the staff , Lisa and Brittany who were great,understanding,and down to earth, professional women who helped me along my process. I loved coming to class,even looked forward to coming and I used to hate school! The hands on training was so helpful and Brittany always answered all my questions even if I called her after school hours. Even well after I graduated lol. This family built a great institution together to help other people get a great career started at a low cost . they build up your self confidence and send you out in the field with the knowledge and skills that u need to become successful. Thank u for what you did for my life because it opened up a lot of other opportunities for me and my family!!!

I recommend the school 100% it is inexpensive guaranteed to pass as long as you put your effort n Faith into it. Teachers are patient and explain things until you know them its not overcrowded just the right amount of students to make you feel comfortable to wear you have enough one-on-one time to learn.It was inviting and fun it was a great journey. I would advise anybody to go to school here not only did I graduate from here Im coming back for the orthodontics class so hats off 2 ASDAπŸ’œπŸ’žπŸ’˜πŸ˜€πŸ’—πŸŽ“πŸ’β˜ΊπŸ“•πŸŽ‰πŸ’―πŸ“ŽπŸ’»πŸ’

This is family right here! I will ALWAYS reccomend this school. I had actually researched this school 2yrs prior to attending. A friend of mine told me about it but at the time I lived 2hrs away. A tragic moment in my life happened and I ended up having to move to the area. I became pretty depressed over some hard choices I had to make. So when I kind of got out of it I remembered the school and decided to go speak to the director to see if there was even a possibility of going. In not such high hopes I spoke to Lisa and basically told her my dilema, I was also pregnant at the time and about to be a single mother, having health issues, closer up in age and just a hot mess! After venting Lisa gave me different options on affording the school. I tried going through Maricopa Workforce Grant program, I wasnt even looked at the first time but Lisa had so much hope for me and told me to try again. The process wasnt easy nor fast for me personally but Lisa kept rooting for me! I am ecstatic to say I finally pushed through and was able to start. When I started I was in the evening class and working mornings. I was in Brittanys class. Brittany is such an amazing instructor! She is very understanding, upfront, funny, and a simply beautiful person inside and out! Even when I couldnt get in touch with Lisa or Brittany, Whitney was their best communicator between us three. I didnt have the pleasure of being in Whitneys class but from what I have been able to get from her is outstanding. I couldnt be more proud of my school and how much Ive accomplished through them. PLEASE..Make this your choice, you wont regret it! The hands on training as well as the curriculum has taught me so much. The small class environment helped as well. Like I said, this is now my family up from a place I had lost all hope. Thank you sooooooooo much ASDA!

I did a lot of research before choosing a dental assistant school to attend. The Arizona School of Dental Assisting had the most positive reviews. After getting my dental and orthodontic certificates from there, I now know why they have awesome reviews. Whittney was my clinical instructor and she was absolutely fabulous throughout my entire course. She is a wealth of knowledge and made sure I felt comfortable with what she was teaching me before she moved on to the next clinical topic. Brittney is another instructor, and was very kind as well. Even though she was not my instructor, she took the time to chat with me and ask about how my course work and internship was going. Lisa the president is a gem! Before I enrolled I had a ton of questions so I emailed her. She insisted I call her during her personal time off campus to address any concerns I had. I thought that spoke volumes about the amazing ladies at ASDA! After that phone call, I knew I had chosen the right school:) I graduated on 7/31/19 and I now work as an orthodontic assistant and I could not be happier. Thank you ASDA for making my career dreams come true!

This school has been the greatest experience for me and I highly recommend checking it out. Everybody that works for this program has been extremely helpful in getting myself to exactly where I wanted to be in the dental field especially Bianca Archambeau. She is the head front office manager and the perfect person to set you up if you really wanna give this field a go.

ASDA gives you a great opportunity to learn. The instructors are always willing to help you out, and as long as you complete in class assignments then homework and exams are a piece or cake! I wish I could continue a whole journey of learning with them because they are honestly the best teachers you could ask for. Thank you!

Review β„–25

I attended this school in 2013, and I would have never fathomed that it would benefit my life in so many ways. My instructor was genuinely invested in my education, and when I had any problems or struggles, she was always the one to help me through them. The class size is small, granting the perfect opportunity for one-on-one interaction with not only instructors, but also classmates. Studying was a breeze, because the school maintains a professional atmosphere, and it was always quiet enough to allow me to focus on my studies. The instructor, Brittany, also gave me great study tips when she would assign class work, and I still use those tricks today. Lisa, the president of the school, worked her hardest to make sure that the skills I developed were perfected and marketable. The dental industry is huge, but it is really tight knit. It is important that an assistant is competent AND confident in their skills, and this school is the place to go to master both areas. Lisa and Brittany have become my allies in this profession, and any time I encountered any difficulty, I turned to them for advice, and I continue to do just that for a very long time.Any person who speaks negatively of this school, or its program definitely assumed that they could just commit a bare minimum to it and succeed, but this school principles itself on sifting the slackers from the achievers.You WILL be challenged, and you WILL be better for it.Thank you, ASDA, you are honestly the foundation I built my career on, and I am glad I found you. I recommend ASDA to everyone I know who possesses the drive it takes to get ahead in this industry.

This school is absolutely AMAZING. The owner, Lisa, likes to get to know the students personally and always does her best to help you out. The lady at front, Bianca, is always willing to help students with anything they need, if its faxing resumes to offices or helping you figure out a financing issue, she is on top of it! The instructor, Brittany, was phenomenal. She was well trained, professional and very knowledgeable about the topics being taught. She was also very kind and encouraging!The campus is very clean and very organized. There are numerous xray machines, a lab and different areas for clinicals. The classes are small and very intimate! You will learn a lot and have a lot of one on one attention with the teacher.I would highly recommend this school to anyone looking to pursue a dental assisting career.

Teachers don’t really care towards the end of the program. It was very difficult finding an internship. They prioritize some of the students and don’t take every student into consideration. Waste of $5500!

Review β„–31

I recently attended ASDA and I am so happy I did! After being out of the work force for a long time to raise my family I wanted to do something that I truly enjoyed and that didnt require years of schooling. ASDA was exactly what I was looking for and met those needs. The program is quick but very informational and provides you the skills and confidence you need to be successful. The owner and staff were very professional and were willing to answer questions and meet my needs in my job search. To anyone who is interested in the career of dental assisting I would highly recommend that they seek interest in ASDA. After 3 months, I am on my way to having a career and not just a job. Keep up the great work!!!

Review β„–33

This place should not have the privilege of being called a School. Anyone interested in a Dental Profession should stay away. Im not going to belittle this institution, as I give them A Star for the effort they put into running a business, but folks thats it, this place is solely a business, they strive for numbers in the class to increase sales and could care less for the student and his/her career success. Once you take this program you will realize 1. The policies change frequently and if you read them they will even state The Arizona school of dental assisting has the right to change at any given time their policies. 2 The Instructor/staff as all are one is completely bias, who sometimes forgets she is teaching a class and loves to talk about her personal life and who has frequent temper tantrums which is utterly unprofessional. In conclusion I was so appalled that I will be posting a simple webpage for anyone who has had bad experiences to have the liberty to share. I will also be posting video within the class room to give future prospects a glimpse of what will be ahead and I might post the audio which shows the complete rudeness of this fine institute, Arizona School of Dental Assisting.
