Course Description:

More than a CE course — this is your roadmap to building a sustainable, empowered temping career.

This practical and empowering 2-part workshop is designed for dental hygienists who want to take control of their schedule, income, and career path through temping. While CE credit is available, this course goes far beyond traditional continuing education. It's a business-building experience filled with proven strategies, real-world insights, and done-for-you resources to help you thrive as an independent temp clinician.

Whether you're just starting to temp or you're looking to elevate your current approach, Temp Smart delivers a clear, step-by-step framework to succeed — not only clinically, but as a professional service provider.

You’ll learn how to navigate office systems, adapt with confidence, and deliver high-quality patient care — all while running your temping career like a business. From setting your rates to building repeat bookings, this course helps you create structure, professionalism, and long-term success.

What’s included:

Temping Daily Prep Checklist
Outreach email scripts
Chart audit and documentation templates
A sample from the Temping Notebook System to help you stay organized and consistent
