Note from the ACDIS Interim Director

The 'I' stands for INTEGRITY

by Laurie Prescott, RN, MSN, CCDS, CCDS-O, CDIP, CRC

I am so proud of the ACDIS credentials. I love that they are incorporated in career ladders, and that hiring entities seek out individuals who are CCDS or CCDS-O certified. I love to see individuals proudly “wear” their credentials within their email signatures, their social media profiles, and literally with their pins on their lapel or name tag. These letters are powerful, as they demonstrate your experience and competence.

I get messages every few days from individuals who have just passed the exam. They are proud and excited to share their news. These credentials offer you credibility, recognition, and opportunity.
