    PurposeDistance education (DE) and distance learning (DL) technologies use continues to experience exponential, global growth. Various DE delivery platforms are being used for dental hygiene and allied health programs offered in post-secondary education. However, a need exists to analyze factors of program and student success using DL modalities. Administrators and educators should consider building educational programs on sound pedagogical principles when using DL for their delivery mechanism. This paper offers an applied conceptual framework as a model when developing DE/DL programs for preparing professionals in dental hygiene and allied health careers.
