I have been a member of the GTA Study Club for the past 7 years. They really go above and beyond to provide up to date material to their audience. Their study clubs are the best and I have to say they are very affordable compared to other study clubs throughout the GTA. You get a healthy delicious dinner and gift bag filled with amazing goodies. Best of all, you get to meet and network with the presenters face to face and they are always ready to help and answer any questions you may have. There are always prizes given at every event, as well. I would highly recommend any hygienist or dentist/specialist to join the GTA Study club.
