SESSION TYPE

DESCRIPTION

PDUs

LIVE

Follow along with the live program (attend one session per time slot). There are eight
(8) sessions on Thursday and six (6) sessions on Friday for a total of fourteen (14) sessions.

14 sessions @ 0.75 PDUs each = 10.5 PDUs.

RECORDED

All live sessions delivered on May 1-2, 2025 will be recorded. Once the Symposium has ended, the links to the recordings will be posted on the website. All participants will receive log-in information to access the recordings.

Each recorded session is worth 0.75 PDUs. If you review all the recorded sessions, you
can earn up to 20.25 PDUs (this number assumes you’ve watched all 14 live sessions discussed above, so it only counts the left over regular sessions).

27 sessions @ 0.75 PDUs each = 20.25 PDUs.

ON-DEMAND

These sessions are pre-recorded and are available to all registered participants starting April 24, 2025. Each on-demand session is worth 0.75 PDUs. We are not sure how many PDUs could be earned until after our call for speakers.

??? sessions @ 0.75 PDUs each = ??? PDUs.

 TOTALS

(as of August 2024)

41 sessions @ 0.75 PDUs each = 30.75 PDUs.
