A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS
Before you join.
What does DMN membership include?
Your seat at the summit, the Practice Playbook built from RIDA Live on your dashboard from day one, the Expert Hotline, a growing Practice Playbook library, practical tools and templates, curated expert and company directories, and confirmed member offers. These continue while your subscription stays active.
When does billing start?
On Wednesday 6 January 2027, two months after the summit, for everyone who joins through this offer, whatever day you join. From then it is $49 a month, locked for life if you join before 6 November. Cancel any time before then and you will not be charged at all. We will remind you by email seven days before the first charge.
How do I get my Zoom link?
Once your membership is open you are registered for the live session automatically, and Zoom emails your personal join link within a few minutes. It comes from Zoom, on behalf of RIDA, so check your spam folder if it has not arrived. The link is unique to you, so please don’t forward it.
What do I need to do for CE credit?
Attend the qualifying session and complete the CE provider’s required attendance verification and evaluation. Registration alone does not earn credit.
I’m already a DMN member. Do I pay again?
No. Sign in with your member email and we register you for the summit at no charge. Your existing membership is not changed.
Is this event exclusive to DMN?
No. The summit is free to attend on RIDA’s own site. What we add is the booking, the Practice Playbook from RIDA Live, the library and two months of membership on us. If you cancel before the summit, you keep your seat.
