$399.00
About the Program
This comprehensive training explores the nuances of applying the Satter Division of Responsibility in Feeding (sDOR) in real-world practice. Through ten self-paced modules, participants will build confidence in supporting families while remaining consistent with the principles of trust, respect, and shared responsibility in feeding.
The program includes three detailed case studies focused on picky eating, child weight divergence, and the development of Satter-consistent nutrition education materials. Additional learning activities, quizzes, and curated research articles help participants deepen their knowledge and strengthen their application of the model.
Participants will learn strategies for reducing pressure and restriction around eating while supporting food exploration, and nurturing healthy, responsive boundaries embedded in trust and respect.

Who Should Enroll?
This program is designed for professionals who are ready to move beyond the foundational concepts of Satter’s Division of Responsibility in Feeding (sDOR) and deepen their understanding of its practical application.
The course is particularly valuable for clinicians, educators, physicians, and other health professionals who support families in primary care, community, and early childhood settings, especially when working within limited assessment, intervention, or follow-up opportunities.
Ideal participants include:
- WIC and Head Start clinicians and educators, as well as other early childhood professionals who provide nutrition, feeding, health, or developmental support to families.
- Dietitians, nutritionists, nurses, speech-language pathologists, physicians, and allied health professionals working in outpatient, primary care, or limited secondary care settings.
- Practitioners who typically work with families through brief consultations, well-child visits, short classes, or one-to-three-session interventions.
