AI Summary

  • Kansas would join the Dietitian Licensure Compact, allowing licensed dietitians to practice across member states without obtaining separate licenses in each state through a "compact privilege"

  • Eligible dietitians must hold a valid registered dietitian credential or complete an ACEND-accredited master's/doctoral degree, at least 1,000 hours of supervised practice experience, and pass the CDR registration examination

  • The compact creates the Dietitian Licensure Compact Commission, a joint governmental agency composed of one delegate from each member state's licensing authority, with authority to establish rules, collect fees, and maintain a shared data system

  • Active military members and their spouses may designate any member state where they hold a license as their home state during active duty service

  • The compact becomes effective when enacted by seven states; member states may withdraw with 180 days' notice after enacting a repealing statute
