STEPS TO BECOMING A REGISTERED DIETITIAN
What is a Registered Dietitian?
The Registered Dietitian (RD) is a credential that is offered and managed by the Commission on Dietetic
Registration (CDR). CDR bases its requirements for registration status on the educational and training competencies that
have been assessed by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (A.N.D.) as being integral to the practice of dietetics and
the protection of the public.
In today's fast growing health care field, especially relating to the prevention and treatment of obesity, the RD has
a critical seat at the table. What separates RDs from other health care professionals is their expertise in nutritional
assessment, evaluation, and dietary prescription. RDs hold a diverse range of positions such as clinical jobs in hospital
settings, outpatient care, long-term care, corporate wellness, product development, performance nutrition, and community
nutrition program development. RDs have management positions within foodservice, public health, and in community
based nutrition programs including state and county; Extension programs and the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)
supplemental nutrition program. For more information about this career choice, visit the A.N.D. web site at
www.eatright.org and the US Bureau of Labor Statistics at http://www.bls.gov
Steps for becoming a Registered Dietitian
Becoming an RD is a multistep process (refer to the A.N.D. website, student section, for the different ways
available to become an RD) starting with a specific set of academic requirements. These academic requirements can only
be obtained from a program accredited by Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND) to
provide a Didactic Program in Dietetics (DP). The curriculum includes the University of Akron general education
coursework needed to meet the baccalaureate core requirements. The Pre-dietetics and Dietetics courses are based on
meeting the ACEND 2012 Standards for Didactic Programs in Nutrition and Dietetics for Accreditation Status, core
knowledge for the RD (KRD) through courses in chemistry, biology, microbiology, psychology, nutritional sciences,
anatomy and physiology, biochemistry, food system management, applied nutrition, nutrition assessment, medical
nutritional therapy, nutrition education and counseling.
The DP option at UA provides the coursework and Verification Statement required to enter a supervised practice
dietetic internship. Following completion of their undergraduate program, and receipt of a Verification Statement,
students apply for acceptance into a dietetic internship. Dietetic internships are typically 6-12 months long and include a
minimum of 1200 hours of supervised practical experience in a variety of health care, community, foodservice, and
management venues. Graduates from the UA program are competitive in placement into accredited dietetic internships.
Following the successful completion of the internship, students are eligible to sit for the National Examination for
RDs administered by CDR. Passing the national exam allows these entry-level practitioners to use the RD credential and
transition into their professional careers.
These newly credentialed professionals continue their commitment to life-long learning via regularly accruing Continuing
Professional Education Units (CPEUs), 75 every 5 years, to ensure they keep pace with the rapidly changing food,
nutrition, and health care professions. Licensure of the RD may be offered through the state, but there is a great deal of
variability in the professional practice. For more information about accredited dietetic internships please visit the student
section of the A.N.D. web site at www.eatright.org.
Licensure in the State of Ohio
1. In order to practice in the State of Ohio, a license issued by the Ohio Board of Dietetics is required
2. Graduates may obtain a limited permit to practice after graduation and you have sent your official transcript
to the Board, but have not taken/passed the RD exam
3. Graduates may obtain a permanent license to practice after graduation, you have sent your official transcript
to the Board, and have passed the RD exam.
5
SUMMARY of how to become a Registered Dietitian when starting with the Didactic Program in Dietetics:
1. Obtain a Bachelor of Science Degree in Dietetics and a verification statement that the DP has been
successfully completed.
2. Apply for and complete an ACEND accredited dietetic internship. This dietetic internship provides at least
1200 hours of supervised practice.
3. Take and pass the national registration examination for Registered Dietitians administered through the
Commission on Dietetic Registration.
To review the 2 dietetic programs that are available at the University of Akron, see Appendix C.
Becoming a Dietetic Technician, Registered (DTR)
Students completing their DP requirements and earning a Bachelor of Science degree who do not pursue a dietetic
internship are able to earn the CDR offered DTR credential. In 2009, CDR developed this third pathway so that students
graduating with a BS and obtaining a verification statement from an accredited DP may take the DTR exam without
acquiring the supervised practice hours required as a part of the other two pathways. Instructions for applying to take the
DTR exam can be found in Appendix D and on the CDR web site at www.cdrnet.org or contact your DP director for
more information.
THE DIDACTIC PROGAM IN DIETETICS (DP)
AT THE UNIVERSITY OF AKRON (UA)
ACCREDITATION HISTORY
The dietetics major at the University of Akron originated in 1967. The Didactic (Plan V) program was first
officially approved by the American Dietetic Association in 1984. The Didactic Program in Dietetics (DP) has been
accredited, since 2005, by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics, the accrediting agency for
the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, web address: http://www.eatright.org/ACEND.
In order to obtain accreditation and remain accredited, core knowledge requirements must be met and can be
found in Appendix A. The DP curriculum with suggested sequence can be found in Appendix B.
Graduates from the DP program at the University of Akron have gone on to dietetic internships located in Ohio
and throughout the United States.
MISSION STATEMENT, GOALS, AND MEASURES,
Mission of the Didactic Program in Dietetics
The mission of the Didactic Program in Dietetics is to provide a high quality curriculum which prepares
graduates for successful completion of an Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics
accredited supervised practice program. The didactic program provides graduates with the knowledge and tools
to develop the skills necessary to become leaders in the field and to translate and apply the science of food and
nutrition to health.
Didactic Program Goals and Measures
The DP is a four year academic program which provides graduates with a Bachelor of Science Degree in
Dietetics and the requirements necessary to apply elsewhere for the supervised practice experience (dietetic internship)
after graduation. Students receive the DP verification statement after satisfactory achievement of knowledge requirements
necessary for completion of the program. Post baccalaureate students can complete DP course requirements and receive
the DP verification statement which is required to apply for dietetic internship. The DP goals and measures can be viewed
on the school web site at: https://www.uakron.edu/nutritiondietetics/index.dot.
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
To be considered for admission into The Didactic Program in Dietetics, the student must be admitted to the

instructor seems necessary in order to evaluate the course content. The DP director and the course instructor
will base their decision on the information available.

Students wishing to receive credit for a course through examination must make arrangements with the
instructor for the course. In general, a comprehensive exam will be given to the student. A grade of “C” or
better must be received on the exam in order to earn credit for the course.


months, which is 150% of the program length of 36 months.

Students taking longer may be required to retake courses so their coursework is current upon graduation.
APPROPRIATE LINES OF COMMUNICATION FOR GRIEVANCES

Students who wish to express a complaint or concern about courses, faculty, other students, existing policies
and procedures, etc. should follow appropriate lines of communication.
9

Courses of action: The student(s) should first request an appointment with the instructor of record to discuss
and attempt to resolve the concern/complaint. Full-time faculty should have office hours posted on the doors
of their offices. The school’s Administrative Assistant also has copies of schedules for all faculty. Part-time
faculty usually only have office hours by appointment. A request for an appointment may be made in writing
(a note left in the faculty member’s mailbox, on the office door or with the Administrative Assistant), in
person, through email, or by phone.

If the problem remains unresolved (or if the student(s) feel they are unable to approach the instructor of
record about the matter), the student(s) should then request an appointment with the DP Director. The
student(s) should be prepared to list: 1) the nature of their concern(s); 2) what steps they have already taken to
resolve the matter; 3) their expectations regarding how the matter should be resolved.

The student may take unresolved issues to the School Director for further review.

If the issue is still unresolved, the student may make an appointment with the Dean of the College of Health
Professions for further review.

If the complaint/concerns/allegations involve the conduct of a fellow student or a faculty member,
complainant(s) should be prepared to document their complaint(s) with verifiable facts (dates, description of
incidents, persons involved, etc.).

If the matter involves the time schedule or content of a course, resolution may require input from all school
faculty as well as other branches of the University organization. This means resolution of a problem may not
occur within the semester during which it is identified. However, students are encouraged to call faculty
attention to such concerns as faculty are constantly adjusting didactic course content and schedules to comply
with ever-changing accreditation and university requirements.

If there is an unresolved issue with the accreditation standards for the Didactic Program after all of the above
avenues have been exhausted, the student may contact ACEND at 1-800-877-1600, ext. 5400.

Students are expected to comply with appropriate standards of confidentiality and ethical behavior with
regard to faculty, fellow students, university staff, clinically-based employees and patients/clients during their
matriculation through the Dietetics Programs.
STUDENT CONDUCT
While in the University of Akron’s Didactic Program in Dietetics students are expected to uphold the image of the
university as well as the profession of dietetics. During professional meetings, public/professional outreach, and all other
occurrences that involve the university or the profession, students are expected to dress appropriately and professionally
while acting ethically and professionally. Not acting so, may result in removal from a course or program and a possible
negative influence on grade and / or letters of recommendation.
.
DECLARATION OF INTENT (DOI)
When necessary, a Declaration of Intent is issued prior to graduation. This is the method used by the
Accreditation Committee for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics to assure that the academic requirements of the DP are
in progress and the student intends to complete the requirements of the DP. Students applying for an internship before
graduating from the program will need a Declaration of Intent in order to complete the application process. This form is
completed by the student during 7760:428 Professional Preparation for Dietetics.
VERIFICATION STATEMENT
10
A verification statement is issued upon completion of the didactic program in dietetics. The Verification statement
is issued by the DP Director and indicates that the student has successfully completed all of the required course work that
have been determined to meet the knowledge requirements established by the Accreditation Council for Education in
Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND). The Program Director will mail verification statements to graduates to their permanent
address one month after degrees are conferred.
At various times in preparing for professional membership or registration, an individual will be asked to supply
the verification statement. Therefore, it is the student’s responsibility to obtain the appropriate quantity of Verification
Statements and to safeguard them until the time they are to be used in various application processes. The student will
need to provide an original verification statement before starting a dietetic internship, taking the national registration exam
and submitting the application for licensure in the state of Ohio.
The student must successfully complete all of the DP requirements in order to earn a verification statement from
the University of Akron. Successful completion requires that the student earn a “C” or better in all of the required
courses.
STUDENT DIETETIC ASSOCIATION
The University of Akron Student Dietetic Association (SDA) welcomes all interested students attending the
University to join. Its purpose is to stimulate interest in the dietetic profession, orient members to the Academy of
Nutrition and Dietetics, and organize activities to involve members in the programs for the public to help promote
nutrition education. Contact the advisor or one of the SDA officers for more information. A list of current SDA officers
can be found on the UA website: http://www.uakron.edu
Meetings are usually held once a month with a guest speaker and/or activity. DP students are encouraged to run
for offices. Elected offices include: President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer. Serving as a SDA officer is an
excellent example of your dedication and leadership - this service reflects positively on you and will benefit your
applications for internships, scholarships, and future employment.
