A unique Distance Dietetic Internship Program with both full time 25 week (or less with PAL credit) or part time 38 week (or less with PAL credit) with offices in the Metropolitan Boston area, during which you will make life-long friends from other parts of the country while completing your Internship, enjoy the support of your family and friends, save money on relocation, rent, food and transportation, network and make contacts for future employment right where you live. We are a large Internship (accredited for 143 Interns annually), but we maintain a small Internship culture by having our Interns working in small groups throughout Our Program. The Clinical, Food Service and Community rotations are equally divided into 6 weeks each and an Elective rotation is 7 weeks in length.
Graduates of Priority Nutrition Care Distance Dietetic Internship gain practical knowledge to carry into the workplace. They can use what they've learned to create educational and training presentations benefiting employees, clients and patients.

Priority Nutrition Care Distance Dietetic Internship graduate Jackson Haen was part of our 18th cohort. Jackson made a decision to change his career path from petroleum engineering to dietetics. He did not wish to relocate and chose PNC because of the autonomy available to set his own rotation sites and preceptors.
