General Attendance Credits

Minnesota dentists, hygienists, and registered dental assistants will earn three (3) elective CE credits for attending the Minnesota Dental Association's multi-day Star of the North Meeting. Many refer to these credits as those earned for "walking the floor."

Course Credits

Attendees at educational sessions may also earn Fundamental or Elective credit as indicated in the course program descriptions. Look for the CORE logo to identify programs to help you meet Minnesota's CORE competency CE requirements.

Our speakers determine the length of their presentations and they review their materials against Minnesota's professional development requirements. Each speaker indicates how much (if any) of their material matches the Fundamental, Elective or CORE categories as defined by the Minnesota Board of Dentistry.

CE Transcript - Proof of Attendance

The Star of the North CE Verification system helps you to keep track of your professional development/CE activities at the meeting. Please take note of the following helpful hints to make this process as easy as possible:

1) Record the completion code, which is announced at the end of every session. Space will be provided in the onsite program book. Do not record the code on your ticket. After you have finished all of your educational programs, (including Table Clinics) review your materials to confirm you have documented all of your codes.

2) It is a good idea to print to print a transcript onsite, however, wait until you have completed your last session. Go to the CE Verification Stations (located in Registration and on the Exhibit Floor) with the list of completion codes from your classes and table clinics and enter them all at once. It is not necessary to visit the CE Verification Stations more than once.

3) It is an even better idea to enter your codes online. With your name badge number (from the bottom of your badge) and completion codes in hand, go to www.starofthenorthmeeting.org and click on the link to verify your attendance. This link will be active on the Monday following the meeting.

Every attendee who earns CE credits to meet professional development requirements should print a copy of their transcript. File the transcript in your professional development portfolio as proof of your continuing education activities at the Star of the North Meeting. According to Minnesota Board of Dentistry rules, it is the responsibility of the individual dental professional to preserve a record of their CE activities.

The CE Verification Stations are sponsored in part by Henry Schein Dental.
