Abstract:
After more than 25 years of credentialing dietetic professionals, the Commission on Dietetic Registration is revising the format for logging continuing professional education. As of 2001, the new system will be phased in over 5 years. Each registered dietetic professional will now plan a course of continuing education to meet personal and professional growth needs. This is a very exciting process and one that has many asking questions of "why, how, when, and where." This article is designed to put a perspective on the new process.
