Marietta’s fast-track dental assisting school—built for real life.
At Assisting 101, we help you launch a new career in just 10 weeks without the debt of a traditional college. Our program is designed for working adults: during the week you’ll complete self-paced online voice-over lessons (about 2 hours total), so when Saturday comes, it’s all about hands-on training inside real dental offices—not classrooms.
You’ll also complete internship experience to build real-world confidence. Our mission is simple: have you job-ready by Week 7 and employed by Week 10.
Tuition is only $3,250 (payment plans available), and we’re proud of our 98% job placement rate, with graduates averaging around $22/hour starting pay. Your training includes Dental Assisting, Dental X-Ray, CPR, and OSHA/HIPAA.
Want to keep leveling up after graduation? We also offer advanced training like Expanded Duties (EDDA/EFDA) so you can grow your skills and your paycheck.
Georgia Board of Dentistry approved. We’re ready when you are—let’s start your future in Marietta.
History
Established in 2016.
Established in 2016. We saw a broken system where students were graduating with degrees but lacked the effective, real-world skills they needed for day-to-day dental assisting. Assisting 101 was created by experienced doctors, hygienists, and assistants to fix that. Our program takes the best elements of all approved training and conforms them into one powerful model. Students gain academic knowledge online at their own pace, but we maximize effectiveness by devoting Saturdays entirely to hands-on practice in real dental offices. We use a proprietary teaching method that ensures students practice essential skills repetitively, allowing them to perfect techniques one by one and utilize their time appropriately. This innovative structure is supported by a crucial element: a very small student-to-instructor ratio. This guarantees one-on-one time when learning new skills and ensures every graduate is job-ready and a perfect fit for the dental field.
