The North Carolina Board of Dietetics/Nutrition has developed an independent study training program for LDNs wishing to become Certified Reviewers for weight control programs. This program is organized into four parts:
Test questions follow each of the four parts. Two case studies are included at the end of the fourth section and are part of the exam.
After successful completion of the course, certified reviewers are required to review a minimum of two weight control programs per year and provide proof of 4 hours of continuing education per year in the area of weight control in order to maintain certification.
