1 from the association The 2010 Commission on Dietetic Registration Entry-Level Dietetics Practice Audit: Distinguishing between Educational Attributes Kevin Sauer, PhD, RD, LD; Brian Ward; Dick Rogers; Charles Mueller, PhD, RD, CNSD; Riva Touger-Decker, PhD, RD, FADA; Elaine Fontenot Molaison, PhD, RD, LD The 2010 Entry-Level Dietetics Practice Audit determined the nature of entry-level practice for registered dietitians (RDs) and dietetic technicians, registered (DTRs). The primary goal of the audit was to provide the profession with quantitative insight about the level and frequency of involvement and perceived risk associated with activity statements of entry-level RDs (EL RDs) and DTRs (EL DTRs) in the first 3 years of practice. The Commission on Dietetic Registration uses the audit results to establish RD and DTR exam content domains while the Commission on Accreditation on Dietetics Education assesses the audit outcomes and accreditation standards for educators. This report summarizes the original methods used and distinguishes between characteristics and activities performed by EL RDs and their educational attributes. METHODS The 2010 practice audit was comprised of 166 activity statements determined and categorized by an expert panel of RDs and DTRs representing multiple and diverse areas of dietetics practice. A mixedmode survey instrument with reminders was then used to collect audit data during June and August The overall response rate for RDs (74%) was a significant improvement from previous audits (n 1,892 EL RDs). Congruent with the initial audit summary report, entry level practice was defined as the first 3 years of practice after. The original report and audit findings (1) provide greater detail on methods and key results. The practice audit measured three quantitative levels of activity including the level and frequency of involvement of each activity in addition to the perceived risk associated with each statement measured. As such, detailed tabulations for each measure of activity at the two levels of education, bachelor s vs master s degrees, did not initially yield clear or meaningful results to logically interpret. Therefore, a gap of at least five percentage points in activity between the levels of education and statistical significance at P 0.05 were used to identify meaningful differences between bachelor s and master s EL RDs for this phase of the audit. In no cases was a gap in points between educational levels and activity more than 12 percentage points. The 2010 Entry-Level Dietetics Practice Audit was developed by the Dietetics Practice Audit Committee of the Commission on Dietetic Registration. Charles Mueller, PhD, RD, CNSD chair; Phyllis A.

Overall, 1,110 EL RDs held bachelor s degrees while 735 held master s degrees. The proportion attaining a bachelor s degree at and a master s degree later compared with a master s degree at was 183 to 494 (Table 1). The type of master s degree was not explored for either master s degree option and, among post-rd master s respondents, timing of degree matriculation was also not explored. Therefore, the two groups of master s EL RDs were condensed into one for further statistical comparisons Journal of the AMERICAN DIETETIC ASSOCIATION 2011 by the American Dietetic Association
2 Table 1. Characteristics differing between entry-level registered dietitians (RDs) whose highest degree is a bachelor s vs a master s degree; 2010 Entry-Level Dietetics Practice Audit Bachelor s RDs with bachelor s degrees tended to be younger (Table 1) than those with master s degrees. Data in Tables 2 to 4 (see pages 1758 through 1761) represent respondents who were practicing in dietetics. Significant differences in primary practice areas between RDs having bachelor s vs master s degrees were observed in clinical nutrition acute-care inpatient (49% bachelor s vs 41% master s) and consultation and business (7% bachelor s vs 13% master s) (Table 2, see page 1758). Nutrition care also represented the practice area and practice setting wherein a higher proportion of bachelor s EL RDs spent their time (at least 20% or more) compared with EL RDs who had master s degrees. In contrast, a greater proportion of EL RDs with master s degrees were involved in research/teaching than EL RDs with bachelor s degrees. EL RDs with bachelor s degrees were more likely to spend their time in acute-care inpatient settings than EL RDs with master s degrees. However, the opposite was the case for college/university/teaching-hospital faculty and private practice settings. More often, was required for employment for EL RDs with bachelor s degrees (87% vs 77%) than their counterparts with master s degrees.

Practice audit activities reported by more EL RDs with bachelor s than with master s degrees were situated within the practice areas of managing human resources, managing food and other material resources, and providing nutrition care either generally, in the community, and/or to individuals (Table 3, see pages 1759 and 1760). Generally, activities reported more often by EL RDs with master s degrees were more concentrated in the practice areas of conducting research, writing business and strategic plans, and marketing of products, programs, or services. In addition, EL RDs with master s degrees were more involved with providing nutrition programs for population groups than their counterparts with bachelor s degrees (Table 4, see page 1761). IMPLICATIONS AND CONCLUSION This report identifies some differences in entry-level practice between EL RDs with bachelor s and those with master s degrees. These data are likely of value to many stakeholders involved in dietetics practice and education, as well as to organizational units exploring levels of practice and educational requirements. The preliminary findings provide evidence that further research focused on differences in timing and type of graduate degrees and practice is needed (2). The 2010 audit could not attribute differences in entry-level practice based solely on level of education attained. The audit was devised to identify entry-level activity as the central theme and mission. As such, activities and practices that might be identified specific to having a graduate degree were not included in the audit. Types of graduate degrees as well as focus areas (ie, relative to dietetics or a prior career) were likewise not explored and, hence, limit interpretation of findings. Future research would be needed to identify these activities in relation to timing and type of graduate degrees. The results and lack of significant distinctions between bachelor s and master s degree levels of educational preparation also do not imply that graduate and advanced degrees or education are not important to the profession. Commission on Accreditation for Dietetics Education standards focus on entry-level practice competence and, hence, do not distinguish between graduate and undergraduate competencies. Therefore, significant differences between educational preparation and entry-level practice would not be expected from an audit focused solely on entry-level practice. The findings presented in this report do support the need for future research, especially in regard to entrylevel practice and the attainment, type, and related timing of graduate degrees to distinguish between entry and post-professional graduate degrees.
