Note from the ACDIS Editor: Help us decide the future path of ACDIS!

by Jess Fluegel

Every time I speak with a CDI professional I’ve never met before, I notice how different their circumstances are from the last person I spoke with. There is such a range of job responsibilities, education, and future career goals amongst our membership. Some have joined the ranks of a large CDI program, while some very brave souls started as the only CDI specialist in their whole organization! As the CDI profession evolves and progresses with each new year, ACDIS wants to weigh the unique needs of all its members in our future plans.

To help us do so, now through Friday, March 10, ACDIS is collecting responses to its annual ACDIS Membership Survey. This survey provides us a glimpse into each member’s needs, wants, and even frustrations. While we can’t sit down with each of you, your candid responses in this survey will be invaluable as ACDIS seeks to improve its offerings within the membership and the broader industry. We also are open to any non-member friends who would like to add their input, particularly surrounding our free resources!

In the survey, we ask questions to gauge what’s most valuable to you about your ACDIS membership, and what isn’t. There are plenty of free response options too, with open questions about things such as what additional resources you would like us to make available or what type of industry guidance you’d like to see for the betterment of your job.

And to sweeten the deal, all respondents can be entered into a giveaway! If you fill out your contact information at the end, you may be one of two lucky winners of either a free webinar or free membership to be announced after the closing of the survey (see official rules).

The ACDIS national team works each day to add value and improve opportunities that come with our membership, but we can’t fully know the true needs and desires of our members without you. I hope you consider taking the time to give feedback as we plan for the future of ACDIS!
