A CE Broker Alternative That Travels With You
How DentaReady compares to CE Broker for dental CE tracking, a free-to-start, portable profile you own and share with employers, complementing official state reporting.
CE Broker is the official continuing-education tracking system for several state boards, including Florida, Alabama, Virginia, and Kentucky. If you’re licensed in one of those states, it’s not really optional, it’s where your board expects your hours to land. DentaReady isn’t trying to replace that. It’s a free-to-start, portable profile that holds your whole professional record and travels with you between jobs, whether or not your state also uses CE Broker.

Where DentaReady fits better
You want one record for everything, not just CE. CE Broker centers on continuing education. DentaReady holds your license, CPR/BLS, certifications, and work documents in a single vault alongside your CE, the full packet an employer actually asks for.
You want to share proof in one tap. When you pick up a shift or change offices, DentaReady lets you send a verified packet of your credentials instead of digging up certificates one at a time. That sharing-with-employers flow isn’t what CE Broker is built around.
You’re licensed in more than one state. If you carry licenses across state lines, DentaReady tracks each state’s rules in one place, useful when only some of your states use CE Broker.
You want to start free and keep your data. Your first three documents are free, and the record is yours, it doesn’t disappear when you switch jobs or programs.
Where CE Broker fits better
If your state board has adopted CE Broker as its official system, that’s where your hours may be required to be reported, and DentaReady doesn’t change that. CE Broker also has a genuinely well-regarded mobile app and a free Basic tier, and in mandated states it gives you a direct line to your board’s compliance status. The honest answer for many clinicians in those states is both: report to CE Broker where required, and use DentaReady as the portable, employer-facing profile that holds the rest.
The bottom line
CE Broker does official state reporting well in the states that use it. DentaReady complements it with a portable, board-aware profile, your CE, license, CPR, and documents in one place, free to start, and yours to keep.
