Comprehensive Cleft Care Workshop (CCCW)
Advanced Training for the Cleft Provider
The Comprehensive Cleft Care Workshop (CCCW), founded by Global Smile Foundation, is carefully designed to empower cleft care providers to deliver the best patient outcomes in their own communities by offering simulation-based training and education that is led by the world’s leaders in the cleft and craniofacial fields. Our standard for cleft care is based on replicable, evidence-based and experience-proven outcomes.
We believe that the best cleft care is provided by an integrated team of specialists that includes surgery, dentistry, orthodontics, pediatrics, speech pathology, psychology, nursing, and anesthesiology.
The agenda for the 2025 CCCW will be available soon.
