    • For non PNDS activities all RDs must submit the details of the activity(e.g duration /content/facilitator) with proof of participation at pndsdietitianexam@gmail.com/info@pnds.org at-least two weeks before the program  in order to assign credit hours to that activity. For non PNDS activities the best approach would be to get credits assigned prior to attending the activity.
