AADOM’s eCampus Learning Management System (LMS) offers a comprehensive, easy-to-use CE platform with courses designed to help dental teams jump-start communication and work together more efficiently
For Sacaunda Markle, just about the only 2 things that have remained the same over her 22-year dental career are the constantly changing landscape of the profession, and the fact that there’s sometimes just 1 office manager in each practice. Those 2 axioms guarantee that it’s an ongoing challenge to stay ahead of new HIPAA protocols or the latest practice management software—to cite just 2 examples—and often equally difficult to find peers who can offer tips and tricks to boost practice efficiency. In short, finding someone who’s "walked the same walk" can be tough.
And that, according to Markle, is a description that perfectly describes the American Association of Dental Office Management (AADOM). “I first discovered AADOM during the pandemic, and since then I’ve taken lots of CE courses through their eCampus LMS,” Markle shared.
“Having access to so many courses and webinars, along with AADOM’s many resources and peers who share advice through the online and in-person community, is just huge.”
Practice-Changing Courses
Before long, Markle noticed she had completed close to 30 courses, collectively running the gamut from personal and professional growth to communication and teamwork skills. The Farmington, NM, office manager points to 1 course in particular that completely recharged the team culture in her practice.
“’The Five C’s of Working Together Better’ with Judy Kay Mausolf has been especially helpful and is part of our yearly training that we do as a team,” she shared. “The course teaches us how to encourage better clarity, compassion, compromise, commitment—and not to forget celebration! It’s enabled us to work together as a team and coordinate our systems, protocols, and personalities in a seamless way."
Easy-to-Use Platform
And for those who may be wary of learning yet another new software, Markle said that navigating AADOM’s library of live and on-demand courses on the eCampus LMS is easy and stress-free.
“AADOM does a great job of keeping everything organized—you just log in and you’ll see the AADOM dashboard, as well as the CE courses you’ve taken or want to complete in the future,” she explained. "Everything is really at your fingertips. You can search for courses by category or format. Overall, the communication skills I‘ve gained from these courses have made me feel more confident about being a leader—not only for our practice, but also in all the other areas of my life.”
