Looking for CIC review and study help?
HANYS in collaboration with NYSACC and APIC is pleased to announce we are planning for our 3rd Annual CIC ® Exam Preparation Study Group.
Please complete this brief survey to indicate if you or team members would be interested in joining the study group, and to express interest in being a volunteer facilitator. We want to thank our previous facilitators for volunteering last year and are looking for those who are interested in facilitating one or more of the sessions in the fall of 2024. We are planning August through November sessions every couple weeks. Volunteering via the survey does not commit you to any specific dates, we will be following up with available dates after gaining information on those interested. Thank you for supporting your fellow infection preventionists.
