Throughout each year, ISDS hosts special conferences and numerous continuing education opportunities statewide for its members. The local component dental societies and the American Dental Association both sponsor conferences on particular areas of interest as well as CE courses for the entire dental team.

The ISDS Board of Trustees consists of five officers and 14 trustees. The elected officers are the President, President-elect, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer. Candidates for officers and trustees alternate between the Chicago district and the other districts within Illinois. The succession of officers is Secretary, Treasurer, Vice President, President-elect and President. Each downstate district elects a trustee to serve a three-year term, while the Chicago district elects seven trustees. Terms of downstate and Chicago trustees are staggered. The slate of officers and trustees is presented to the ISDS House of Delegates for vote each September during the ISDS Annual Session.
