RDA Training Academy, School for Dental Assisting is taught out of a dental office in Austin Texas.

We offer a unique hands on approach to learning, the best way to learn Dental Assisting.

Our instructors are very experienced Dental Assistants.

The class meets once a week in the dental office. You will learn through lectures,

videos, and then practicing hands on, as well as assigned homework during the week.

Much of the Dental Assisting class is hands on, practicing doing what you will actually be doing

in your future job.

We teach you what you need to know to do the job.
