Local chapter update: Ask your members what they want to learn

The best way to figure out what you should be providing for educational opportunities is to simply ask your members what they’d like to learn. You can send a survey to your members asking them what topics they would be interested in hearing about, or any ideas they have for educational ideas in the future.

Local chapter leaders can request their membership roster from ACDIS at any time and can send out formal or informal surveys to their members to better gauge their education and networking needs.

The following is a list of upcoming events for ACDIS local chapters. Visit your local chapter’s webpage on the ACDIS site for additional information about upcoming meetings. To join a chapter if you haven’t already or to update your chapter contact information/affiliation, click here.
