nutritionist

[jc00l471]

Hello,
I'm looking to become a certified nutritionist/deitian...
I have no idea about what certifications are being offered out there. I know of the CNA, but one needs to have a degree in nutrition to take the exam.

Can anyone give me some info on this!!! IF you know about it don't hesitate to reply...

Obtaining a bachelors in Nutrition will basically qualify you as a nutritionist. To obtain an RD, you need to have completed an undegrad degree in nutrition then finish an internship (in a nutshell). You can take the state test for your RD after your internship. Some internships can be taken intertwined with a graduate program depending on the University you are applying to.

A CNA certificate has nothing to do with nutrition.
