Does the ACDIS Podcast offer CCDS or other CEUs, or does it offer materials or other handouts to listeners?

Starting with the January 4, 2023 episode, the ACDIS Podcast began offering 0.5 ACDIS CEUs per episode. This change came paired with a couple of other updates that allow ACDIS to offer CEUs effectively.

First, after many years of doing the show live, ACDIS moved to a completely pre-recorded format. While veteran listeners may have been disappointed in this change, rest assured we had good reason for it:

  • Instead of confining listeners to a set 30-minute period in order to qualify for the 0.5 CEUs, listeners have a full two days to listen and take the associated survey.
  • Pre-recording allows the ACDIS team more creative control in order to record and produce the best possible episode and gives guests more flexibility to record their interview at a time that works best for their schedule.
  • Moving away from the GoToWebinar platform bypasses many organizational restrictions that previously prevented listeners from joining us live.

Secondly, because the podcast is no longer live, the way you listen changed. Our schedule stayed the same—every other Wednesday—but instead of hosting the show live on GoToWebinar, ACDIS posts the episode to the ACDIS website and to the various podcast apps. For the first two days (till Friday at 11 p.m. eastern), listeners have the opportunity to claim the 0.5 CEUs by responding to the associated episode survey. After that point, the CEU link closes, but listeners are still able to access the episode on the website or their podcast app.

Those who were previously subscribed to the Podcast still receive notification that the new episode is available via our weekly CDI Strategies newsletter.
