Depending on which location you want to go to:
Santo Domingo is $13,950. (everything included – with flight form Miami or Atlanta)
Laos & Cambodia are $11,950 (everything included – with flight from Los Angeles)
what is the exact fees for advance 1 course and what does it include, like does it include airfare and accomodation and local transport.
The fees for all the course levels are the same. $13,950 for Santo Domingo and $11,950 for Laos and Cambodia.

The course price always include:
all include hotel for 7 nights,
daily transportation to and from clinic,
Trinon Titanium Implant package (about 13 implants plus instruments)
Agata, a prerequsite for these courses should most definately be: “Ability to read the price and lack of airfare in said price as listed at the top of the page”. Just a thought…

Hello, I’m interested in taking the beginner course. This may be a silly question but if I take the course in Dominican Republic will the training be in english? Thanks.
Yes all of the instructors speak English
This is the best hands on beginner course for placing implants ever!!!! Placing 30 implants in five days with live patients will give anyone the confidence and knowledge to start implant dentistry in his office.
hi
i would like ask you if u take this course if u have contact e-mail to catch up
thx
hello i am interested in beginner course but i would like to ask about prosthetic part do we will finish cases or not?
I would like to ask u some questions
Do i will place implants in different cases like anterior and posterior dense bone u know different situation
Second do i will prepare cases before implant placing like tracing radiograph identify length diameter by myself not just drilling?
You will have a chance to place implants in all locations of the mouth. You can prepare the case with the instructors before you “drill”. The instructors are very knowledgeable, they will help you out. How much you can learn from the course, depends on how much you know about implants.
You will not be involved with the prosthetics parts
I am interested in course in Cambodia ,I have placed about 60 implants so far ,and am interested in placements with augmentation and sinus lifts,mainly crestall but possibly lat approach ,am also interested in piessosurgery ,would like to know which course is best for me ,probably advanced 1 ,I live in Perth ,Western Australia ,and would like an idea of costing with airfares cheers Gavin
Hi Gavin,
looking at your comment it looks that the Advance I course is the right one for you and you would be learning various augmentation techniques during the course. Some of our recent Advanced I participants also used piezosurgery within their cases and I will be happy to get you in touch with them.
I organize the courses in Asia from Singapore and you are welcome to drop me a mail for further information on costing, flights and other aspects of the course. Lukasz[at]collegium-practicum.org

Will there ever be a US course??
We are working on having courses in the US. Possibly in 2014. For now we invite you to join us at the Dominican Rpublic course.
Are any positions available for the 2012 year?
Yes, there are still a few spots open.
We recently a summer course (Jun 25-29 in Cambodia) in addition to the already schedualed 2012 courses.
Please send us an email for more information.
I did not know what to expect but this course was above any expectations. The class is all about surgery and while it’s true that you do place 30 implants you also gain a lot more first hand experience by watching at least another 60 implants being placed. I loved the location as well people were friendly and warm, and the instructors were extremely skilled.
At the end of the course we gained tremendous knowledge and many new friends. I reccomend this class to anyone interested
does your course fee to combodia includes ticket from uae
Unfortunately, the flight in not included from UAE. The flight is included to Santo Domingo from Madrid. However to let you know, due to high interest, we organized an extra course in Cambodia in June(23-30)2012

thanks

The area is safe and your wife can come and stay with you at the resort, but please know that you will not have much time to spend with her Monday-Friday. For more information please contact me at courses[at]optimumsolutiongroup.com
Hi , is this course eligible for any CPD education points in Aus?
Hi Mills,
at this moment we are not directly giving CPD points in AU, though I know that in some countries the documentation that you create during the course and official certificates by the University we work with make them eligible.
Ideallly you check with your association but in addition to the documentation the practical experience one gains is vast and beneficial for novices and advanced suregeons alike.
Do let me know if you have further questions, I am quite happy to answer
Regards,
Lukasz
