Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) Maintenance: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how to maintain your professional credentials through annual fees and continuing education requirements.
This program allows Registered Dietitians to maintain their professional credentials and active status.
Who it's for
This is for Registered Dietitians who have successfully passed the national exam.
What you get
By following the maintenance requirements, you keep your professional registration status active. This involves paying annual maintenance fees and completing a specific amount of continuing professional education units (CPEUs) every five years.
What it costs you
You will need to pay annual maintenance fees to keep your registration current. You must also invest time into completing your required education units within the five-year cycle.
The catch to know
Many professionals find that they wait too long to record their continuing education. Forgetting to log your CPEUs as you earn them can lead to a stressful scramble to meet the requirements right before your five-year deadline.
How to apply
- Log in to your professional account.
- Pay your required annual maintenance fees.
- Track and log your continuing education units regularly.
