The 2023 ACDIS national conference is closer than you think, but for anyone whose busy summer plans got in the way of applying to be a speaker, we’ve extended your chance! Present on whatever your favored CDI subject may be, whether that is staff management, physician engagement, or clinically-focused chart reviews. Those interested can apply now through August 29, 2022. Once the applications close, all proposals will be reviewed by the ACDIS Events Committee and ACDIS staff.
Here’s the basic outline of the application:
- Type in your basic info: name, credentials, job title, organization/facility name, city, and state
- Include accurate contact information so we can get a hold of you
- Enter a proposed session title and a summary or description of the session

It can be hard at times to find ways of advancing professional development in the CDI realm, so speaking at one of the largest annual conferences centered on this profession is a big opportunity. On top of that, speakers at the national conference can receive free admission to the entirety of the three-day event (up to two speakers per presentation). If you’re interested but would like further information or clarification, all are welcome to reach out to Director of Programming Rebecca Hendren at rhendren@acdis.org.
