WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A REGISTERED DIETITIAN NUTRITIONIST (RDN) AND A NUTRITIONIST?

As a registered dietitian nutritionist, I have completed under-graduate and graduate education and training established by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics. While any person may call themselves a nutritionist, all RDNs must:

  • Get a four-year degree which includes a specially designed, accredited nutrition curriculum.

  • Complete a 1200-hour extensive supervised program of practice at a health care facility, foodservice organization or community agency.

  • Pass a national registration exam.

  • Maintain continuing education credits for re-certification.

  • Obtain licensure annually with Idaho Board of Medicine and certification with Washington State.
