AAMD Celebrates National Medical Dosimetrist's Day ALL WEEK LONG!
To help further medical dosimetry education, the AAMD is once again teaming up with our corporate partners to present a series of FREE webinars the week of August 17 – 21, 2026. The AAMD supports the continuing education and professional development of all medical dosimetrists. We encourage members and non-members of the AAMD to take advantage of these FREE webinars to learn new skills and brush up on existing ones.
All participants must have an online AAMD profile (i.e. member or non-member). Registration will be required.
These webinars are FREE for both members and non-members. For AAMD members, these will NOT count toward your annual allowance of 12 online CE credit activities, which are included with membership.
