Archive of Resources from the Dietary Guidelines Series

In spring 2005, UW-Extension Family Living Nutrition Specialists provided a series of staff trainings on the 2005 Dietary Guidelines for Americans and MyPyramid food guidance system. Links to archived versions of these trainings appear here. The educational design for these trainings targets Extension staff in Wisconsin. The trainings were not designed to target the general public. For questions about this WislineWeb series contact Amy Rettammel at arettamm@wisc.edu. A Dietary Guidelines presentation designed for use with professional community partners (ppt) is available for downloading.
