About TAGD MasterTrack
Texas AGD MasterTrack is a protocol type program set up in two-session segments for each track. We have two-session tracks in Austin, Houston and Dallas. Each Session is three and a half days beginning with protocol presentations on Thursday. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday begin new topics. Participants that complete four year track in Houston, Austin or Dallas will earn the minimum 400 participation hours needed for Mastership. Participants are expected to earn the additional 200 lecture hours at local CE meetings during this period.
Participation hours earned during the first 500 hours for Fellowship can now be applied to the Mastership requirements. A total of 1,100 hours since date of membership will be required for Mastership.
First-time MasterTrack participants may begin at any session they choose, there is no formal starting date/session for the Texas MasterTrack program. First-time participants will not need to present at the first session they attend. They can elect to attend the protocol presentations on Thursday to receive all of the CE hours or can attend Friday through Sunday, though they will not receive the full amount of participation credit.
For questions or more details about the MasterTrack program, please contact Sandy Frizzell at Sandy@tagd.org or toll-free 877-464-8243.
About TAGD Master Study Club
Master Study Club is a protocol presentation program and elite study club designed exclusively for those who have earned their Mastership in the Academy of General Dentistry. The program calls for a full-day of lecture followed by an optional workshop. Attendees may then prepare a 20 to 30-minute case presentation based upon the lecture and their personal research to present to the group at the following meeting. This protocol-style allows attendees to obtain up to 32 hours of participation credit per course to meet the minimum hands-on requirements of the Lifelong Learning and Service Recognition (LLSR) award. Master Study Club is a group for Masters looking to fulfill the charges issued to them at convocation, charges that include: 1) the responsibility to continue the journey as a lifelong learner, to remain abreast of cutting-edge advances in the profession; 2) the responsibility to use your experience and position to teach and give others the benefit of what you have learned, to be involved and be a mentor; and 3) the responsibility to your community., to extend your influence and talents to be committed, to be a leader and to exemplify dedication, concern, compassion and understanding in unselfish service.
