IDE@sia is established by a group of enthusiastic multinational professionals intending to provide high quality educational opportunity free of geographical and time constraints to every dentist in Asia.

The idea of establishing an institute of dental education in Asia arises because professional education is evolving rapidly in the digital age. Firstly, in the era of information technology, there is more knowledge than ever before and learning is not only interactive but also multidimensional with emphasis on e-learning, real time experience and individualization. Secondly, there is a trend seeing more and more Asian speakers successfully integrated in the global speaker circle. Finally, new information is being produced at a fascinating high speed requiring a fast responding flexible mechanism for delivery.
