This year’s theme is: Dietitians are Artists Too

The reason we are organizing this symposium is to address a critical gap in the training of dietitians. While RDs are traditionally taught to prioritize clinical expertise, they often lack exposure and training in creative opportunities and career trajectories. In today's digital age, where consumers turn to social media and online platforms for nutrition information, the ability to create engaging and impactful content is becoming increasingly essential.

As the landscape of nutrition communication evolves, RDs must adapt by expanding their creativity and content creation skills. Simply possessing clinical knowledge is no longer sufficient to effectively reach and engage with diverse audiences. Whether it's crafting visually appealing infographics, producing informative videos, or developing interactive social media campaigns, RDs need to harness their creativity to stand out in the crowded online space.


This symposium aims to provide RDs with the tools, resources, and inspiration needed to elevate their content creation skills and thrive in today's dynamic digital landscape.


Join us for this virtual workshop where we talk about the latest nutrition research on eggs, food styling and food photography skill building, how to create captivating food & nutrition content as well as the applications of content creation for dietitians and nutrition experts.

Get ready to watch live food styling demos, become more proficient in your content creation skills, get inspired with new ideas, and walk away with the confidence to work with a versatile (yet in some cases difficult) ingredient like eggs.
