Dietitians of Canada

What we do

We educate Canadians by providing trusted nutrition information to them and health professionals. Through our public website, our annual Nutrition Month Campaign and easy access to the expertise of dietitians, we facilitate access to private counselling, business consultations and media interviews.

We provide leadership in shaping nutrition policy that supports healthy eating and promotes the health of Canadians at the national, provincial and local levels.

We develop standards and resources that support dietitians and other health professionals in their practice as well as provide professional development opportunities.

We accredit education and training programs that prepare students for practice as a dietitian.
