We invite you to submit nominations for any and all of UAND’s Awards. This is a great opportunity to recognize your coworkers, colleagues, mentors, or protégés for the work they have done in the dietetics profession. In 2016, we want to present each of the awards below:

– Award of Recognition: to recognize those outside the field of dietetics who have contributed unselfishly to the dietetics profession.

– Award of Merit: to recognize a dietitian who has demonstrated leadership and made a significant contribution to the profession of dietetics

– Recognized Young Dietitian of the Year: to recognize a dietitian 35 years of age or younger who has demonstrated leadership qualities and performance in dietetics

– Emerging Dietetic Leader: to recognize the competence and activities of dietitians, regardless of age, who have made distinctive contributions early in their dietetics career

The criteria for each award, nomination procedures, and required nominee data sheet are available on the UAND website: http://www.eatrightutah.org/uda.cfm?page=awards.
