Twenty-Three (23) CPEUs for the Symposium program will be
requested from the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR). CPE from the
American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) is also anticipated.
This week’s blog post features Christine Karpinski, PhD, RD,
CSSD, LDN and Susan Kundrat, MS, RD, CSSD, LDN.
Their session is titled: “Small School Sports Nutrition: Keys to
Developing a Sustainable Sports Nutrition Program.” This presentation will
provide a 'blueprint' that includes tangible models, protocols and tools
to develop a collegiate sports nutrition services program on a limited
budget. Examples of tools offered include practice protocols, budget and
proposal development, negotiations, and programming recommendations.
Expanded and updated data on the state of small school sports nutrition
programs will be presented in addition to new UWM athlete data.
Participants will leave this presentation with the knowledge and tools
necessary to not only provide nutrition services to programs on a limited
budget, but to sustain and grow programs into a full-time position.
The greatest opportunities for sports nutrition programming for SCAN members
are at the small Division I, Division II, and Division III member schools
because of the great number of athletes and athletic programs.
