Continuing Education/Accreditation 

The American Society for Nutrition is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

CDR Credentialed Practitioners can document live activities that have not received prior approval if they meet CDR Core Content Criteria and CDR CPE Activity Type Definitions. One (1) hour of live training is equal to one (1) CPEU. It is up to the learner to determine if the live activity meets the requirements outlined in the CDR Core Content Criteria and CDR CPE Activity Type Definitions. If you have any questions/concerns, please contact pdp@eatright.org.

Check back in early 2027 for more details about the maximum continuing education credits that can be claimed.

All non-physician healthcare professionals at NUTRITION 2027 will be able to complete an evaluation and download a Certificate of Participation. This certificate designates your participation in this education activity. It lists the amount of continuing medical education credit that has been designated for physicians by ASN. You should be able to use this documentation for your licensing or certification needs. To determine if activities designated for AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ are acceptable for your licensing or certification needs, please contact your credentialing body directly. Please note ASN cannot guarantee its acceptance.
