Eating Disorder Informed Professional (EDIP) Designation
Eating Recovery Center offers an eating disorder continuing education program to support school professionals, providers, educators and administrators in learning, identifying, assessing and providing early intervention surrounding eating disorders.
Program Overview
The Eating Disorder Informed Professional Designation is a continuing education program* designed to recognize professionals who have completed eating disorder training to understand the development of eating disorders, specific ways to identify disordered eating and the devastating medical consequences: including bone loss, gastrointestinal disturbances, low heart rate and blood pressure, severe mental health conditions and even death. This designation supports professionals in identifying disordered eating and eating disorder behaviors in order to facilitate early intervention – while also supporting those with diagnosable eating disorders.
An EDIP is informed about how language and culture can trigger disordered eating and eating disorder behaviors in individuals who may be predisposed to these conditions. These professionals have received the necessary education to compassionately support struggling individuals, while simultaneously connecting them to resources and treatment for recovery.
Displaying your EDIP designation demonstrates that you are clinically informed and can provide a stigma-free space where clients can feel heard, understood and validated.
