Licensees who are not registered dietitians
A licensee who is not a registered dietitian must “certify the completion of thirty hours of continuing education completed during the two-year renewal period.” At least one hour must relate to ethics or laws and rules, hours must come from activities approved by CDR, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, or the Ohio Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, and the licensee keeps a learning plan consistent with CDR’s process (paraphrased).
What this page does not do
It covers the state dietetics license only, and only what the official page named above says. It does not list fees and does not replace the board’s own instructions. CDR registration is separate; see the RD and DTR overview. Rules change; check the board before you renew.
