The Newsletter for the Greater Kansas City Society of Ultrasonographers
Thanks to our speaker Megan Meade and sponsor GE Medical for making our April meeting a big success!
Thanks also to all of our members for supporting our society. We couldn’t do what we do without you!
The next meeting of the GKCSU will be an in person meeting in September. Please check back for more information.
**********************************************************************
This year we will be offering two types of meetings, in person and virtual.
The meeting in the months of September and October will be held in person.
The November meeting will be a virtual meeting only (via Zoom).
Due to recent requests for late registration for online meetings, beginning in the Fall of 2024, a $10 late fee will be required for those requesting to register after the official registration closure date.
*******************************************************************
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.
