Register today and join your fellow practitioners to hear representatives from the Academy, the Council of State Governments and the Department of Defense on Wednesday, October 19 from 2-3 p.m. (Central time) for a conversation about the Academy’s exciting efforts to support the mobility of licensed registered dietitian nutritionists.

What would a licensure compact mean for the nutrition and dietetics profession?

A licensure compact could be a significant benefit for licensed registered dietitians, creating more job opportunities for practitioners as it facilitates telehealth and working with clients across state lines with less time and expense than obtaining an individual license in each state in which one practices. In addition, military spouses would be able to transition more easily to working in their new community after relocating to a new state.
