Education & Presentations

A resource library built by your peers

Everything here came out of a real chapter meeting — presented by a colleague, a public health partner, or a subject matter expert who came to talk with us. We organize it by CBIC content area so it's easy to find what you need, whether you're preparing for your CIC exam or just trying to stay current.

We add to this after every meeting. If you presented something and want it included, reach out to any board member.
