How to Find Jobs, Courses, Events, and Credentialed Professionals on the AHDI Website

AHDI (the Association for Healthcare Documentation Integrity) groups all of these lookups into a single toolset on its homepage called Search & Connect. From there you can reach six directories: Find a Member, Find a Credentialed Professional, Find an Approved Education Program, Find a Job, Find a Live Event, and Find an Online Course. Each one is a separate entry point, so the fastest approach is to start at Search & Connect and pick the directory that matches what you need.

What Search & Connect Covers

The Search & Connect section on ahdionline.org is the navigation hub for the six lookups below. It is the only place on the homepage where these tools are collected together, which makes it the natural starting point for any of the four tasks in this guide.

Finding a Job

Use Find a Job when you want to browse openings in healthcare documentation. It sits in the same Search & Connect group as the other directories, so you reach it the same way you reach the course and event listings. The homepage does not describe filters, alert features, or application steps, so treat this as a directory entry point rather than a full job board walkthrough — open it and review what listings are available.

Finding Courses and Education Programs

Two separate directories cover learning, and they serve different purposes:

• Find an Online Course — for online courses you can take remotely.
• Find an Approved Education Program — for education programs that AHDI recognizes. Use this one if your goal is formal training rather than a single course.

If you are deciding between the two, start with your end goal: a specific skill points to Find an Online Course, while a structured program or career path points to Find an Approved Education Program.

Finding Live Events

Use Find a Live Event for scheduled events. AHDI also maintains a calendar on the homepage showing the current month, and it lists recurring meetings such as the AHDI Board Meeting, held on the third Monday of each month at 12:00 PM Pacific / 3:00 PM Eastern, online. The board meeting is open to all AHDI members, and members submit a "request for link" form to attend. Note that the published schedule is subject to change, so confirm details before relying on a date.

Finding Credentialed Professionals and Members

These two directories are easy to confuse:

• Find a Credentialed Professional — for individuals who hold an AHDI credential. Use this when you need to confirm that someone has a specific credential.
• Find a Member — for AHDI members generally. Membership and credentialing are not the same thing, so a member is not automatically a credentialed professional.

If your purpose is verification, choose Find a Credentialed Professional. If your purpose is networking or confirming membership status, choose Find a Member.

Related Credentials You May Encounter

While searching for credentialed professionals, you may see references to AHDI credentials. The homepage highlights a newer one: the Certified Veterinary Healthcare Documentation Professional (CVHDP), described as a new credential for veterinary healthcare documentation professionals. AHDI also offers a Clinician-Created Documentation Auditing Skill Builder, a 200+ page resource announced February 24, 2025, aimed at both new and experienced healthcare documentation specialists.

Practical Tips

• Start at Search & Connect on the homepage rather than trying to guess individual URLs.
• Match the directory to your goal: jobs → Find a Job; remote learning → Find an Online Course; formal training → Find an Approved Education Program; events → Find a Live Event; credential checks → Find a Credentialed Professional; membership → Find a Member.
• For events, cross-check the homepage calendar, since listings such as the board meeting note that schedules can change.
• The homepage does not publish pricing for these directories or for membership, so check the individual pages for any cost or access requirements before committing.
