According to the 2006 Position of the American Dietetic Association, food and nutrition professionals have a key role in educating the public about food and agricultural biotechnology. The newest continuing professional education (CPE) self-study module available from the IFIC Foundation is
Food Biotechnology 101: A Primer on the Science and the Public Debate. This CPE will help prepare dietitians to provide the public with science-based information about biotechnology, one of many technologies that will affect agricultural and food production in the 21st century. This and other CPE modules are available at
