A mixture of texts, videos, graphics, together with elaborately produced 3D animations, facilitates learning. Each model is assigned the same number of education credits as a two-day face-to-face training. The e.Academy has been an integral component of the DGI Curriculum Implantology since June 2016. Now it is available free of charge to students taking a Masters course. Established implantologists who wish to update their knowledge can also benefit from this offer, even if they are not members of the Association. However, there are favorable conditions for DGI members. Currently six e.Tutorials on various aspects of hard and soft tissue regeneration, on augmentation and bone healing, on surgical and technical complications during implantation as well as on peri- implantitis are available. Once finished, there will be 18 e.Tutorials. A multi-step quality assurance process ensures the high scientific and clinical standards of the contents. The condensed knowledge of leading experts in implant dentistry acting as authors or publishers, is supplemented by own electronic suites with additional information from CAMLOG and Straumann. The two companies accept and comply with the strict compliance requirements set out by the DGI. These were part of an official tender. "CAMLOG feels obliged to sustainable commitment“, says Michael Ludwig, Managing Director of CAMLOG Vertriebs GmbH. "We are therefore very proud to support the pioneering future project of the DGI e.Academy and thus underline our own competence." For further information please go to www.dgi-ev.de DGI continues to expand the use of its e.Academy, a high level e-Learning Program. It now complements the learning offers for students enrolled in the DGI Steinbeis Masters courses of implant dentistry and periodontology. The e.Academy is supported by CAMLOG Biotechnologies AG and the Institute Straumann AG, who have committed themselves long-term as exclusive sponsors of the e.Academy.
