Texas dietitian license renewal and continuing education
The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation states: “To renew a dietitian license, you must complete a minimum of 12 hours of continuing education during each 2 year licensing period.”

Cycle
“A dietitian license is valid for two years after the date of issuance and may be renewed biennially.”
What counts
TDLR’s list of credits includes 1 hour for the jurisprudence examination each renewal cycle and a maximum of 6 hours of self-study (paraphrased). Professional organization activity such as committee service earns no credit (paraphrased).
Required topics
None named. The official source this page quotes sets the CE hours but does not name a required topic (read November 12, 2026). Other state laws can still apply, so confirm with the board before you renew.
Compare states: required CE topics by state.
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.
