PLEASE NOTE:

CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION CREDITS (CPEUs):
-
The Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) approved CPEUs for both the LIVE and post-conference RECORDED versions of speaker sessions for the 2021 NWRD Annual Conference Virtual Event.
-
Note the Expo Hall booths (exhibitor and poster sessions) are ONLY approved for CPEUs during the LIVE event. The virtual platform, Accelevents, might keep the Expo Hall booths open post-conference, however, this isn't guaranteed and CPEUs aren't awarded for post-conference booths.
-
We encourage all registrants to attend the LIVE event so they may interact with peers, engage with live speakers, and visit the Expo Hall (as Exhibitor participation is, in part, why our registration fees are reasonably priced).
-
CPEU certificates will be awarded individually for each speaker session, so that attendees can make-up in a recorded CPEU if they missed the live version of a speaker session.
-
Please note that Accelevents runs time-based analytics in the background and records attendee participation of each session (live and recorded). It is up to the attendee to log the appropriately earned CPEU certificates with the CDR.
-
In accordance with CDR's policies, NWRD will maintain the analytics for several years, in the event CDR requests audits of past attendees.
Please let us know if you have questions
thank you,
