Complete in 6 months (or less with PAL credit)
Due to the impacts of the Covid-19 we have made changes to our Program. In May and July we graduated two classes who successfully completed our program during the pandemic.
Our Program is now 25 weeks long (1000 Hours). Six months or less. Four days / week (Monday through Thursday) will be spent at your site (or in rotations where the preceptor is working virtually) and one day (Friday) at your home office completing group assignments with your small group. If the pandemic worsens to the point that sites are not available,and all Interns must leave their sites, our Program has plans in place to provide what is described by our accreditor, ACEND, as authentic practice experiences, which may be completed from your home office. Determinations will be made on a case by case basis and the state of the pandemic at a particular point in time in particular places as to the best alternatives for completing supervised practice. Please note that on site experiences are preferred. We reserve the right to determine the appropriateness of sites.
Concentration: Business of Nutrition & Management of Food & Nutrition Services
We offer 3 payment plans.

Priority Nutrition Care Distance Dietetic Internship
A unique full time 6 month Distance Dietetic Internship Program (25 weeks/40 hours per week) with offices in the Metropolitan Boston area, during which you can make life-long friends from other parts of the country while completing your Internship, enjoying the support of your family and friends, saving money, networking and making contacts for future employment right where you live. Although we are a large Internship (accredited for 143 Interns annually), we maintain a small Internship culture by having our Interns working in small groups (6-8 Interns). The Clinical, Food Service and Community rotations are equally divided into 6 weeks each and the culminating Elective rotation is 7 weeks in length.
We participate in both the Fall and Spring matches and accept up to 70 Interns in each match. We are now awarding credit for Prior Assessed Learning (PAL) which may be acquired through life or work experience and could shorten the length of the Internship by five weeks or more and we are offering three different payment plans.
