The ZMV advanced training is intended to enable ZFA/ZAH to specialise in the areas of practice organisation and communication and thus enable you to meet the increased administrative and service-oriented requirements of a modern and patient-oriented dental practice.
The area of dental billing and accounting is just as much a part of the advanced training as quality management and the confident use of information technologies. Furthermore, competencies in important legal issues, business management knowledge, confident handling of personnel issues and a professional and at the same time appealing care of patient and external contacts of the practice belong to the qualification of an administrative assistant.

Upgrading BAföG
The upgrading training courses at the Philipp Pfaff Institute can be funded via the Upgrading Training Assistance Act (Aufstiegs-BAföG).
The funding of upgrading training courses under the Upgrading Training Assistance Act (AFBG), the so-called “Aufstiegs-BAföG”, has recently required the provider of the measure to apply a quality assurance system.
This criterion is fully met with the ISO certification of the Philipp Pfaff Institute, so that all eligible course participants have the opportunity to apply for Aufstiegs-BAföG for upgrading training at the Philipp Pfaff Institute.
You can find more information on the Aufstiegs-BAföG at https://www.aufstiegs-bafoeg.de.
