ACDIS update: ACDIS CEUs offered throughout 2024

One of the most valuable resources both members and the CDI community at large say they appreciate about ACDIS is the access to free educational CEU offerings. While an ACDIS membership also provides plenty of discounts ($100 on registration off for the annual ACDIS conference and $100 on both exam and recertification costs for CCDS/CCDS-O certification, to name a few), each year ACDIS provides a variety of CEU offerings you can take advantage of! Some are free and available for the whole CDI community, while some are specifically for ACDIS members.

Here's a breakdown of CEU opportunities that have been offered in 2024 (with many still available!):

• Four ACDIS CEUs for members by listening to our Quarterly Member Calls and completing the brief evaluation within a year of the live call date.
• Six ACDIS CEUs for members by reading the bimonthly CDI Journal and completing the accompanying 10-question quiz within a year of the edition’s publication.
• One and a half free ACDIS CEUs by watching the 2024 CDI Week State of the Industry webinar and completing the brief evaluation within a year of the live call date
• A total of 13 free ACDIS CEUs by listening to the ACDIS Podcast and completing the CEU evaluation within the two-day time period following each episode’s publishing.
• A total of 100 ACDIS CEU opportunities offered in coordination with our local chapters and networking groups for their meetings throughout the year. If you haven’t gotten involved in your nearest local chapter, make sure not to miss out in 2025!
• Seven free ACDIS CEU opportunities offered for our free and sponsored webinars throughout the year (usually 1-1.5 CEUs each) for live participants.

As you can see, there’s plenty of CEU opportunities when you’re involved with ACDIS! We hope this list also gives you a starting point for expanding your CDI education in the new year. The best way to stay up-to-date on these offerings is to subscribe to CDI Strategies if you haven’t yet, follow us on social media, and stop by the ACDIS website on a regular basis.
