    Podcast mini: Behind the scenes of the July/August 2024 CDI Journal

    Today’s show is part of our new ACDIS Podcast mini-series focused on highlighting the expertise available in the bimonthly CDI Journal, ACDIS’ flagship publication. Unlike our traditional biweekly episodes of the show, today’s episode is short and does not feature an interview, ACDIS update, or CEU opportunity. It’s designed to highlight the valuable information at members’ disposal in our latest Journal edition. It is hosted by ACDIS Editor Jess Fluegel. For this podcast mini, we’re covering the July/August 2024 edition of the CDI Journal. Members can access the full edition today by clicking here (https://bit.ly/3RLIkZB). If you’d like to write for a future edition of the Journal, you can find a full list of upcoming editions and instructions to submit your articles in our Publications FAQ section: https://acdis.org/faq/209   Because these new mini episodes are short (roughly 10 minutes in length), do not feature an industry interview, and specifically focus on an ACDIS resource, they do not offer a CEU opportunity.  Our intro and outro music for the ACDIS Podcast is “medianoche” by Dee Yan-Kay and our ad music is “Take Me Higher” by Jahzzar, both obtained from the Free Music Archive. Have questions about today’s show or ideas for a future episode? Contact the ACDIS team at info@acdis.org.
