Important: CMEs will be awarded by email within 10-14 days after each meeting unless you have been informed at the meeting of a potential delay. It is very important that you make sure that you receive them at that time if you have attended the meeting.
Our secretary (smitheransono@gmail.com) is allowed 30 days by the SDMS to enter the CMEs for attending members after each meeting.
After that time period it is not possible to provide you with the credits.
If you have any other questions about your CMEs, please contact our secretary, Tiffany Smitheran by email at smitheransono@gmail.com as soon as possible.
Participants can view their SDMS CME/Credits by logging into their learning center by clicking here.
From there, please click here to refer to this tutorial.

The GKCSU membership year runs from January to December. If you have paid within a calendar year there is no need to join again.
Dues are $40 for sonographers and $10 for student members.
************************************************
Currently, the SDMS issued CME sheet sent to you through your email following a meeting is the only valid proof of your attendance at the meeting. If you are a member of the SDMS, CME’s are automatically tracked by the SDMS and you can use their website to track your SDMS issued CME’s. If you are not an SDMS member make sure your email address is correct in our records and that you are receiving your certificates after each meeting.
