Registration for Dietitians Transferring Within Canada
General Registration
In Canada, the Canadian Free Trade Agreement includes provisions to ensure that regulated professionals can easily move from one province to another without having to undergo further assessment of their education and training (Ontario). Any applicant who is currently registered in good standing with another Canadian Dietetic Regulator is eligible to apply for registration on the equivalent register with the College of Dietitians of PEI.
To be eligible for registration through labour mobility without further assessment, the applicant must:
- Be currently registered in good standing in an active practice category with a provincial dietetic regulator.
- Be of good character.
- Have registration without conditions, restrictions or limitations.
If you are a dietitian who is currently registered in another Canadian province and want to become registered please review the following documents:
- Guidelines for Transferring within Canada
- Transfer Application Form
- Welcome Letter General Registrant

Requirements for Special Registration: Same as transfering within Canada, guidelines and application above.
