Local chapter update: Sign-up, sign-in, participate

ACDIS local chapter members don’t need to be ACDIS national members but they do need to sign up via the online membership roster on a quarterly basis. Doing so qualifies local chapter members for a discount off national membership (see the final page of the roster for the discount code) and ensures you receive important information from your local CDI community about networking and educational opportunities near you.

Additionally, the online membership roster provides valuable information to the local chapter leadership and opportunities for you to get more involved by either hosting, speaking, or helping out the leadership team.

The following is a list of upcoming events for ACDIS local chapters. If you have an upcoming event you would like to include, please email Melissa Varnavas (mvarnavas@acdis.org) and Linnea Archibald (larchibald@acdis.org).
