CDI is a diverse field, involving multiple disciplines both directly in a CDI professional role and indirectly through interdepartmental collaboration. That’s what the 2018 CDI Week theme is all about—“CDI Mosaic: Creating a Collaborative Portrait.” This year’s Industry Overview Survey bore out that theme in data as well, showing more expansion, more collaboration, and more diversity than in years past.
In this year's free CDI Week webinar, industry experts will discuss the 2018 CDI Week Industry Survey results and their implications for the industry.
