The idea was encapsulated by the day’s motto: “Empowered Women, Empower Women”. The event offered attendees about 5 hours of free educational talks, presented by outstanding women in the GI field, and were able to gain 4.5 Continuing Education Units (CEU) from the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR).
