Protecting the Public

The College of Dietitians of Ontario is a regulatory body. We are not an education facility. Our mandate is to ensure that dietitians follow the laws and dietetic practice standards so the public can have access to safe, ethical and quality nutrition services.

how we protect the public

• We register only individuals who meet our standards for certification to practice dietetics in Ontario.

• We monitor dietitians through our quality assurance program  to make sure they keep their knowledge and skills up-to-date.

• We provide a Register of Dietitians, available online, to help you verify that a dietitian is registered to practice in Ontario.

• If you have a concern or complaint about your dietitian, you can call us for help.
