The Foundation Programme has been engineered to support our next generation of Providers. It will take you on a journey to develop your own clinical expertise and help you shape the future of both your practice and your patients.</p>

<div><strong>Step 1: Essentials Training Modules</strong></div>

<div>To kick-start your journey, you must complete six on-demand, online modules designed to help you select your first Invisalign patients and maximise your training experience. Once you have successfully completed the six modules and submitted 5 ClinCheck&reg; Approved cases, you will then be able to progress to the next stage of your journey.</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div><strong>Step 2: A 2-day live Invisalign Certification Course</strong></div>

<div>You are invited to immerse in two consecutive days with a peer expert and clinical staff to guide you through your first Invisalign treatment plans and ignite personal growth.&nbsp; &nbsp;</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div><strong>Step 3: eConnect Webinars&nbsp;</strong></div>

<div>You will attend at least two online webinars, which provide a chance to review and discuss your cases with Align Technology&rsquo;s highly experienced clinical staff. This will allow you to build on your new clinical knowledge through the utilisation of course materials and sessions.</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div><strong>Step 4: Case Caf&eacute;s&nbsp;</strong></div>

<div>You will join your cohort to attend four Case Caf&eacute;s in the first 6 months post-course, providing a chance to review and discuss more complex cases with a peer expert (mentor) and Align Technology&rsquo;s highly experienced clinical staff.</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div><strong>Step 5: IDS Education &amp; Case Gallery On-Demand</strong></div>

<div>This provides you with the opportunity to have your cases reviewed by a dedicated mentor and learn from your peers with The Invisalign Forum, on-demand.</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<p>In registering to attend this two-day certification training as part of the Invisalign Foundation Programme, you will be assigned an Account Representative that will be dedicated to supporting you through your journey.
