About the Council
The Council of Sections is composed of 37 Sections and 11 Special Interest Groups (SIGs) that represent major disciplines and various areas of interest in dental and allied dental education. The sections and SIGs are designed to allow members with shared interests to come together to develop program content, policy papers in their fields of practice or areas of interest, provide for professional and social networking, career development and mentoring.
Mission Statement
The mission of the ADEA Council of Sections (CoS) is to represent the many disciplines, administrative functions, and special interests of dental and allied dental education within ADEA and to provide a venue where all these constituencies come together to address contemporary issues influencing education, research, and the delivery of oral health care for the improvement of the health of the public.
