Performing the Skill Safely and with Care Any negligent behavior that does or could result in injury to the patient or damage to the teeth will be awarded a “U” grade under “Performs the skill safely and with care”. This patient safety error cannot be corrected on re-attempts and will result in failure of the skill even if all other criteria are met. Time Management In order to receive an “A” grade in this criterion, candidates are not required to perform every one of the criteria. However, all critical criteria must be performed before the time limit. CPE Results Timing Candidates will receive an email notification from the NDAEB four to six weeks following the evaluation date advising them that their results have been made available on the candidate portal. Non-registered program graduates who have successfully completed all requirements on the CPE will have their NDAEB certificate forwarded by regular mail. I am not sure if these are highlighted for a reason other than drawing the candidate’s attention to the information. Same with the highlighted area in the next section. Reporting to Regulatory Authorities In the interest of public safety, the NDAEB will automatically release candidates’ CPE results, pass or fail, to the Canadian Dental Assisting Regulatory Authority (CDARA) in the province in which the candidate resides – and may subsequently release pass/fail information to a CDARA in any province upon request. The release of CPE results to third parties, other than a CDARA, will only be done with the written consent of the candidate. Please refer to NDAEB privacy policy and the CPE application form for details. Unsuccessful CPE Evaluation Candidates are asked to note the following items, if they are unsuccessful in passing any/all of their CPE skills: The NDAEB office and staff can NOT and will NOT discuss results with candidates. CPE results are final and will not be changed under any circumstances. Candidates who are unsuccessful may apply for re-evaluation at another CPE date. The same CPE and application fees apply, whether a candidate is on their first, second or final CPE attempt. Candidates only need to be re- evaluated on the unsuccessfully-evaluated skills from previous CPE attempt(s) (within the CPE timeline – see below for more details). Previous successfully evaluated skills will be recorded as a “pass”. Candidates must successfully pass all CPE skills within 13 (thirteen) months of taking their initial CPE session. Candidates failing to successfully complete the entire CPE within 13 (thirteen) months of the initial attempt will be required to retake the entire CPE (all nine skills) or complete educational upgrading in lieu in order to attain the NDAEB certificate or letter indicating successful
