What is a Registered Dietitian?
Registered Dietitians are your most credible source of nutrition information. A registered dietitian (RD) is a food and nutrition expert who has met academic and professional requirements including:
- Bachelor Degree with course work approved by the American Dietetic Association’s Commission on Accreditation for Dietetics Education. Coursework typically includes food and nutrition sciences, food service systems management, business, economics, computer science, sociology, biochemistry, physiology, microbiology and chemistry.
- Complete an accredited, supervised, experiential practice program at a health-care facility, community agency or food service corporation.
- Pass a national examination administered by the Commission on Dietetic Registration.
- Complete continuing professional educational requirements to maintain registration.
A RD can hold additional certifications in specialized areas of practice, such as pediatric or renal nutrition or diabetes education. About half of all registered dietitians work in clinical settings, private practice or health-care facilities. Many work in community and public health settings, academia and research, business, journalism, sports nutrition and wellness programs.
Looking for Information for Job Fairs or Career days contact VDA's State Professional Recruitment Coordinator
The State Professional Recruitment Coordinator (SPRC) is the liaison between ADA, members of affiliate organizations, and students regarding career information about dietetics. The SPRC is the state contact person posted on the ADA student center Web site that students or affiliate members may contact about basic career information on the dietetics profession.
The SPRC has brochures and other information that is made available through the ADA Careers and Student Services. These materials are geared toward junior high or high school students and can be used at career fairs offered at junior high or high schools around the state.
If you are asked to participate in a career fair in your community, brochures and flyers are available by contacting Jane Ross, SPRC, at 656-0539 or jross@uvm.edu.
