Today’s featured ACDIS solution is ACDIS Online: CDI Summer Retreat.
A retreat is a place of privacy, safety, and security. A place where like-minded individuals can come together to withdraw from the day-to-day, to study, meditate, and learn from one another. A place to take a collective breath, let the worries of the past year pass by, and recharge both personally and professionally.
That’s why ACDIS and the 2021 Events Committee developed this three-day, two-track, ACDIS Online: CDI Summer Retreat—kicking off the first official week of summer, June 23-25.
Be inspired by sessions focused on CDI growth and advancement. Learn networking strategies that will help you take your career to the next level. Hone your CDI skills in sessions focused on becoming a stronger reviewer. Become a better manager by learning how to build trust within your department and organization. Connect with physicians through multiple sessions offering tactics for engagement.
Sessions begin at noon, eastern, allowing attendees to come together regardless of their geographic location. There will also be live question and answer sessions with event speakers, an inspiring live keynote, a virtual cocktail hour, and live-stream discussion strings enabling attendees to share in the most valuable asset of all—our CDI experiences.
This is our biggest virtual event yet offering more than a dozen continuing education credits. When you listen live, you can choose sessions from two tracks, but all sessions are available on demand for 60 days after the close of the event, so no need to miss any education!
