What is it?
This is the first ever Canadian Dietetic Registration Exam (CDRE) comprehensive notes-based study guide for Dietetic students who are preparing to write the CDRE.
This is the first ever Canadian Dietetic Registration Exam (CDRE) comprehensive notes-based study guide for Dietetic students who are preparing to write the CDRE.
Purpose
As students, the Dietitians bringing you this course found there was a major lack of direction in preparing to write the CDRE. They felt lost and didn't know where to begin tackling the mountain of information needed to cover - a shared experience between virtually every classmate and dietitian they had, and continue to come across.
While the U.S. has 5 core resources available to students in preparation for the CDR (CDRE equivalent), there is only one resource in Ontario outside of the official CDRE Preparatory Guide issued by the College of Dietitians. This is the first guide to consolidate and review all of the required knowledge concepts tested in the CDRE - an integral part of the study process.

Collaboration
Ina Benkova, RD, MPH was a colleague of Dora's at University of Toronto who greatly benefited from her hard work when her time came to writing the registration exam.
She gained access to this treasure trove of a resource which prepared her for testing and gave her confidence in writing this difficult exam.
Once the exam was over and she had been successful, Ina knew this study guide could not be hidden away, tucked in a folder. She reached out to Dora urging them to work together to bring this study material to the other students in the same position.
She specializes in the dietetic areas of weight management, sports nutrition and women's health in her private practice. Her role is in the administration and user experience of this project making it available to up and coming RDs.
