Dietetic Internships
Dietetic internships are supervised training programs for individuals who want to become registered dietitians. After completing their academic degree in nutrition or dietetics, interns work in real-world settings such as hospitals, community health, or food service, gaining practical experience under professional guidance. These internships typically last several months to a year and include clinical, foodservice, and community-based training. The goal is to prepare interns with the skills and knowledge necessary to assess nutritional needs, develop meal plans, and promote healthy eating habits, ultimately qualifying them to pass the national registration exam and work as licensed dietitians.
