Welcome to our website! The Capital District Continuum for Advanced Dental Education (CDCADE) was formed in 2005, to provide exceptional education opportunities to our local membership, in the tradition of  the Seattle Study Club.

The Seattle Study Club was founded in 1977, by Dr. Michael Cohen, in an effort to bring general dentists and dental specialists together, for true colleague-based learning.  Members are dedicated to the twin ideals of team treatment planning and total case management.

This original idea has now grown to over 200 clubs across the United States, as well as internationally. SSC meetings evolved into a format for shared continuing education, which creates an effective dental "team".  This peer-based approach to learning ultimately benefits the patient, as well as increasing referrals and enhancing the work experience for the team members.
