Answer 1

Dietitian Education:
Dietitians must have a bachelor’s degree from an American Dietetic Association (ADA) accredited program. Some dietitians enter an ADA accredited BA/MA program, which provides classroom and on-the-job training. Coursework generally includes economics, statistics, bacteriology, physiology, home economics, management theory, business administration, sociology and data processing.

Dietician Certification:
Most states require licensure or certification. The Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) offers national certification and testing which earns dieticians the title Registered Dietitian (RD). Here's their web site: http://www.cdrnet.org/

Job Outlook: Employment of dietitians is expected to grow faster than the average for all occupations through 2014. A growing and aging population will increase the demand for meals and nutritional counseling in nursing homes, schools, prisons, community health programs, and home healthcare agencies. The number of dietitian positions in nursing care facilities is expected to decline slightly, as they contract out food service operations. However, these food service operations will need dietitians.

Dietician Salaries:
According to the Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, dietitians earned between $31,070 and $45,950 a year in 2000. Dietitians specializing in consultation, education, research and nutrition management earned over $48,000 annually.
