GC America currently lists 155 free courses in this directory, making it one of the five biggest catalogues in the directory (#4 of 70). Roughly 53% of the catalogue is Restorative; the rest ranges over 10 further specialty areas. Almost all of it comes as roughly one-hour webinars (1.0 hr average) — a drip-feed library rather than study-day material.
Certificates are effectively standard: 155 of 155 courses (100%) indicate one, comfortably above the 94% directory average — a low-friction pick for audited records.
The feed moves quickly: 155 courses added in the past quarter alone (latest 2026-07-07). Recurring subjects across its course titles — composite, materials, restorations — give a fair map of where its teaching concentrates.

Making the most of GC America
Roughly 53% of what GC America offers is Restorative, which makes the library easiest to use with a specific gap in mind. Worked well as an opening run: I Have It…You Need It: Restorative Dentistry is... (Restorative, ~1 hr), then 3D Printing with Innovative New Materials (Digital Dentistry & Imaging, ~1 hr), then A Practical Guide to Varnish (General Dentistry, ~1 hr). Each link opens the course card here first, so you can favourite it or log it before heading to the provider.
All told there are about 157 hours here; log each course from its card and the tracker keeps the running total against your regulator's target. Every course in this library issues a certificate, so each one can go straight into an audit file.
