Dental Hygiene Alumni Chapter

The Dental Hygiene Alumni Chapter (DHAC) represents all graduates from the University of Alberta Dental Hygiene Program. The goals of the DHAC include hosting events where alumni members can gather, network, and engage with the one another and their alma mater. We facilitate relationships between faculty, partners, alumni, and students, and act as ambassadors for the UAlberta alumni. We strive to provide mentorship opportunities for students, to enrich the student experience, and offer resources and professional development opportunities for dental hygiene alumni.

The DHAC hosts four to five alumni events per year. Additionally, the chapter has established an endowed bursary, providing $900 a year to one deserving student.

Our events and opportunities for engagement include:

• Continuing education courses for alumni
• Student mentorship events
• Graduation Luncheon
• Student Black and White Affair and Pinning Ceremony
• Reunion Reception

The DHAC Executive Committee is comprised of ten dedicated, passionate, and engaged DH alumni members. 

Our mission is to connect with alumni, students, faculty and partners to foster an engaged community of oral health professionals through mentorship, networking, providing resources and professional development opportunities.
