Code of Ethics

This Code provides general principles and specific ethical standards for the protection of the individuals, groups, organizations, communities, or populations with whom nutrition and dietetics practitioners work and interact.

The Academy/CDR Disciplinary and Ethics Complaints Policy for the Code of Ethics establishes a fair system to deal with complaints about members and credentialed practitioners from peers or the public.

An unprecedented ability to share information and perspectives brings exciting opportunities for practitioners. But with them come challenges, including reconciling social media best practices, principles of the code of ethics and professional courtesies and conduct.
