This week we sit down with Lauren Bozich, MS, RD, LDN, Senior Director of Accreditation at ACEND. This episode provides an important update since our conversation with Dr. Rayane AbuSabha last year. Starting this year, all supervised practice and graduate programs accredited through ACEND must follow the new DICAS application process.Bozich walks us through the changes, explaining key dates, what they mean for students, how to prepare strong applications, and the overall benefits of this streamlined system. With her expertise, listeners will gain clarity and confidence in navigating this transition.For more details, visit ACEND’s website: https://www.eatrightpro.org/acend/students-and-advancing-education/students-and-advancing-education-intro
