title: Implications of ADA plan IV for active membership.
abstract: A survey was made of academic institutions in the United States having an American Dietetic Association (ADA) approve Plan IV program and/or a graduate program in public health nutrition. Data from the respondents encompassed enrollment, ADA Plan IV and its implementation, and ADA active membership qualification. The number and kinds of dietetic-related programs, number of enrolled master's level students, and the perceived process of evaluating the transcripts of such students in accordance with ADA's Plan IV were reported. Results underscore the need for clarification and standardization of the evaluation process.
