Renal Nutrition Training Program

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s Department of Nutrition is pleased to announce the new Renal Nutrition Training Program, which is co-sponsored by a grant from the Renal Research Institute. This training will provide a background in renal nutrition for registered dietitians with an interest in the renal specialty as well as new renal dietitians. Participants will gain an understanding of behavioral strategies to use when counseling their patients and will have the opportunity to practice these skills during the two-day training. Those who complete the program will maintain and strengthen renal nutrition knowledge and skills through monthly continuing education activities for one year, post training.

The training provides 25 continuing professional education units for registered dietitians; the registration cost is $50. Mark your calendars!

Full details and registration information can be found on the Renal Nutrition Training Program website. Please contact Kate Sayre, the Outreach Services Coordinator for the UNC Department of Nutrition for additional information.
