Career Growth Investments

Career growth investment can range from smaller, one-time efforts to larger, multi-year, degree-seeking ones.

If you are interested in growing your career, consider investing in yourself by doing one or more of these activities: 

• Attend trainings or conferences: 2025 Training Opportunities PDF  

• Community Health Worker courses 

• Add to your formal education. Examples include: 

  • Associate degree or bachelor's degree  in Dietetics, Public Health Nutrition, or Maternal and Child Health 

  • Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) pathway (master's degree required)

• Seek out a mentoring relationship with a leader in your field of work 

• Join associations or coalitions in your field of work (some examples in the RDN other resources list) 

Currently, this career growth resources webpage focuses primarily on the RDN pathway. We’ll expand resources over time and in response to feedback from staff regarding career growth interests.
