Your submission
This is incredibly helpful--thank you!!!

Sorry for taking such a long time to reply. I was away from keyboard. Now, there are multiple parts that sound like an advert. The section, What the ACD Does itself is promotional. In fact, the phrase itself is promotional. It reads as if extracted from a catalogue. I suggest you to read WP:NPOV and WP:PUFFERY to understand more. Most sentences are considered not neutral. Some example -- The 1st sentence: The American College of Dentists recognizes excellence in professional and community services by conferring Fellowship on worthy candidates nominated by their peers. This reads as if from the brochure of the college. Another sentence: To date, more than 112,000 courses on ethics have been taken. The phrase to date refers to what date? It's very vaguely written. Historical milestones covered within the article would be better if written in paragraphs. However, some are not notable. Eg.* 1997 Ethics Wallet Card develope. I would advice taking other existing colleges as a rough guide. You can elaborate on the history, current affairs of the college. EROS message 08:11, 5 April 2018 (UTC)
