\n(8) sessions on Thursday and five (5) sessions on Friday for a total of thirteen (13) sessions. The last session on Friday is worth 1.5 PDUs instead of .75.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\n

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.<\/p>\n

Each recorded session is worth 0.75 PDUs. If you review all the recorded sessions, you
\ncan earn up to 18 PDUs (this number assumes you\u2019ve watched all 13 live sessions discussed above, so it only counts the leftover regular sessions).<\/p>\n<\/td>\n
