Candidate application

Get on the list for a partner office

A few details and we'll reach out when an office near you opens a class. It's free for candidates.

We use this only to contact you about your request. Privacy policy.

Black Books & Co.ffee connects candidates with partner offices; we don't guarantee employment, and taking x-rays in Texas requires separate RDA certification through a TSBDE-approved course. Own a practice? See the training system instead.
