FAQ
How is this seminar delivered?
This is a live, interactive, and multi-media seminar presented via Zoom.
When is the best time to offer this program?
Many internships and schools opt to do this on or near graduation. Others prefer to do it earlier so interns have more time to digest and incorporate what they discover as they go about their rotations.
Why do you offer this?
My goal is to offer an opportunity for dietitians-to-be to be exposed to just how vast our field is, even during COVID-19, and to begin to take small steps as a means to gain confidence in themself and what is possible. Having been a dietitian now for over a decade, I want to create a supportive and welcoming environment for new RDs joining us on the mission to make the world a healthier place.
Can you offer this seminar to other groups?
Yes, I am available as a speaker for local and national dietetic associations events, nutrition entrepreneurs, and preceptors. Just fill out the form and share what you are looking for in the notes section.
