The University of Manitoba’s Diploma in Dental Hygiene program prepares students to work as dental hygienists who serve the public in oral disease prevention and oral health promotion through a uniquely holistic approach.

Students will hone their skills through hands-on clinical experiences. Small class sizes and opportunities to work with real clients ensure students will be exposed to industry-leading work in all aspects of dentistry. In the first year, students gain exposure to clinical experiences. In the second year, students will provide community oral health care (tooth restorations, extractions, and dental hygiene cleaning) at a variety of locations.

After successful completion of the National Dental Hygiene Certification Board Examination, in Manitoba, graduates must apply to the College of Dental Hygienists of Manitoba for a license to practice as a dental hygienist. Dental hygienists must fulfill the requirements of the respective provincial regulatory authorities licensing bodies. The minimum educational credential for licensure in the province of Manitoba is the Diploma in Dental Hygiene.

Just based on the fact they are now using VR to teach is a reason good enough to not apply. What happened to in person, real time, real life teaching? For a nursing curriculum it was to academic and quite ideational. I feel sorry for the students, they will be completely overwhelmed when they enter the workforce. Try to preform nursing skills after being taught on a VR headset. Joke.

UofM Nursing program is absolutely terrible. If you are interested in nursing, move to another province. The entire first year is just repeat of your prerequisite courses, and there’s barely nursing. A couple of the courses are useless to your career and a waste of your time and money, especially the course where they get sex workers to teach a class, force leftist ideologies onto you, literally tried teaching us there was more than two genders.
The deans are useless and have no leadership qualities whatsoever, most of the faculty are power tripping and treat the students like high school teenagers rather than adult learners. Definitely doesn’t help prepare you for the workforce. Absolute joke of College, not to mention the fact that they aren’t even located on the Bannatyne campus so there’s no interdisciplinary integration. I only have two stars because I met some good like minded people and we would drink before lectures just to be able to get through them.
