There will be a truly unique International Induction ceremony with the intention of having inductees present from every ICD Section. A picture-perfect moment, when participants from around the world enter the assembly hall waving their country flags in an Olympic-style event. A spectacular Centennial Gala Banquet will follow the ceremony, which promises to be a never-to-be-forgotten, grand conclusion to the Centennial year. Join Your Colleagues in Fabulous Japan Plans are underway to provide organized travel and touring options from anywhere in the world.

The College has begun the most ambitious and challenging project ever undertaken in its nearly 100 years of existence. The amazing success story of the ICD that started with two visionary leaders and became the premier international honor society of dentists will be celebrated throughout the world in 2020. Some of lCD’s most experienced leaders have been named to the College Centennial Committee [CCC], which will organize all aspects of the Centennial from events and public relations, to promotions and fundraising. A Worldwide Celebration Under the theme “Celebrating the first 100 years”, every Section, District and Region will be planning events. Each jurisdiction has been assigned at least one or more local Fellows to provide oversight and ensure events planning is proceeding, as well as act as a liaison with the CCC. The possibilities for celebrating our 100-year anniversary are endless. The CCC has accumulated a wealth of resources to help with guidance and recommendations. All worldwide events will be publicized on the College website, which will have a designated area specifically for Centennial updates, information and global photo gallery. “Celebrating the first 100 Years” Dov Sydney College Editor | General Chair, College Centennial Committee https://youtu.be/ng6VW8fLG1Y
