Hiring from Outside Ontario

A Certificate of Registration from the College of Dietitians of Ontario is required to practice as a dietitian in Ontario. It is illegal to practice as a dietitian in Ontario unless an individual is registered with the College.

Registration with a regulatory body from one jurisdiction is not transferable to another jurisdiction. An individual wishing to work in Ontario must apply to the College of Dietitians of Ontario. In some instances, the applicant's qualifications for registration may be subject to further assessment.
