The Institute

In 1987, Dr. Rich Erickson founded Dental Careers Institute, the first ten-week dental assistant training school in the country. His accelerated, hands-on method proved successful and soon spread across the country. DCI has earned an excellent reputation in the dental community, and since its inception, over 3,000 certified dental assistants have graduated from DCI.
