ACDIS update: Achievement Award application period extended through July 30

CDI Strategies - Volume 15, Issue 28

The annual ACDIS Achievement Awards were created to help recognize the innovative ways that individual lean into the CDI profession, not only to advance their own careers, but to help their colleagues and their organizations advance the mission of CDI. If one of your peers fits that description, consider nominating them for one of this year’s ACDIS Achievement Awards.

The 2021 awards include:

  • The Professional of the Year
  • Recognition of Professional Achievement
  • Excellence in Provider Engagement
  • Rookie of the Year
  • NEW: Diversity in CDI Award

ACDIS encourages CDI teams to get together and discuss the awards, pooling resources to determine if anyone of their staff fit the criteria. The deadline has been extended to Friday, July 30!

If a CDI staff member, manager, physician advisor, or other related professional goes above and beyond in their daily duties to advance the CDI profession, help their peers, and move the needle on CDI outcomes at your organization, consider nominating them for one of this year’s honors.

The nomination process is fairly simple:

  1. Review the award criteria
  2. Gather some basic information about the nominee:
    1. Credentials, job title, short bio
    2. Resume and photo (if possible)
    3. Reason for nomination
  3. Submit the nomination form linked on this page

Please note that the Diversity in CDI Award includes additional questions related to the overall organization, so be sure to review the award criteria before beginning the nomination process.

The ACDIS Events Committee will review all the nominations and select finalists. At that point, you’ll be asked to let your colleagues know about their nomination, allowing them to submit additional details for evaluation.

We know there are incredible folks nationwide doing groundbreaking work in the field and we can't wait to honor them! To give you even more time to nominate your amazing colleagues, the Achievement Awards application period has been extended through Friday, July 30.
