MIL VS CIV 2 Year AEGD

Yes there are a few and they can be found through the ADA website. When a civilian who has done a 2 yr AEGD/GPR (1 +1 = not a continual 2) comes into the Army, they are not given credit for having completed a 2 yr AEGD (Comprehensive Dental program). For the Army standard it must be a 2 yr program from the start. As you already alluded to, the difference is that the curriculum is designed to build upon the first year. With a 1+1 it is usually more of learning some advance skills/information the first year, and then having a 2nd year to continue to gain proficiency as well as mentor the first year residents.

There are not a lot of civilian programs that offer the 2 yr program. Two civilian programs that I know of off hand that are 2 yrs from the start is the VA program in Richmond, Va. There is also one out in New York - Long Island/Staten Island I believe. I had looked them up once through the ADA website - not sure if they still have a directory like that.
