How to Become a Member
Open member enrollment for 2024

Georgia ACDIS is affiliated with the national ACDIS, and we sign an agreement with them every year. However, we do not collect their membership fees, and the national ACDIS office does not collect chapter dues for the state. Therefore, to cover the expenses often accrued as we hold four (4) quarterly state meetings online and in-person (when permited), we have implemented an Official Paid Membership program. Of course, anyone can attend our meetings and receive notices and educational disbursements via email, but only Official Paid Members receive and not limited to the following:

• Entrance to attend all four (4) quarterly meetings
  (between 15-20 CEUs, door prizes, and for onsite meetings - breakfast, lunch, and snacks). 

• Ability to attend meetings remotely when available via conference line (Zoom, etc.). 

Paid chapter members get first choice priority for spots with online meetings.
Paid chapter member must register for online meetings during early member enrollment ahead of open registration.

• Eligible to hold a position on the Georgia ACDIS board

Members of the board and leadership after one year of service are eligible for deep discounts to national membership, conferences, and other offerings by HCPro.
