The East Texas A&M University DI Program is a 9-month program, with a mission to empower graduates with competencies to provide expert nutritional support to individuals of all economic and cultural backgrounds. The curriculum has been developed with a goal of exposing interns to a variety of settings and circumstances. In these settings, they will gain practical experience with the public in addition to completing projects that add to their knowledge, such as emergency preparedness, poverty simulations, and low-resource recipe development. The rotations are organized and sequenced to progressively build interns’ skills and competencies in a logical and comprehensive manner. All interns will be working under a preceptor, who will be an expert in their field. Interns will not be replacing employees, but rather shadowing, assisting, or role-playing.

Accreditation
East Texas A&M University (ETAMU) Dietetic Internship Program has been granted Candidacy for Accreditation with the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND). ETAMU is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges to award associate, baccalaureate, master’s and doctoral degrees. For questions about accreditation status, please contact the ACEND office at 800-877-1600 ext. 5400, or at 120 South Riverside Plaza, Suite 2190, Chicago, IL, 60606-6995.
Program Completion Requirements
To receive a verification statement of completion, interns will need to have completed 1200 hours of supervised practice, and met all competencies outlined by ACEND. At the completion of all rotations and when all evaluation forms and assignments have been submitted and evaluated by the Dietetic Internship Director, the dietetic interns will fill out necessary paperwork for submission for eligibility to the Commission on Dietetic Registration. Upon receipt of proof of completion of a graduate degree, the Dietetic Internship Director will provide ACEND Verification Statements to interns when registration eligibility is submitted. East Texas A&M University does not provide credit for prior learning experiences or competence.
Graduate Credit
The Dietetic Internship is a stand-alone, non-degree program. This means that completion of the internship does not automatically confer a graduate degree and is not combined with a master’s program.
However, interns who choose to enroll in the Master of Science in Nutrition program at East Texas A&M may apply 6 graduate credit hours from the internship toward the MS in Nutrition degree requirements. This option allows students to build on their supervised practice experience while pursuing advanced academic training in nutrition.
Please note that admission to the MS in Nutrition program is a separate process and is not guaranteed through participation in the dietetic internship.
Credit for Prior Learning or Competence
No credit is given for prior learning experiences or competence. The entire 1200 hours of supervised practice must be documented on time sheets and signed by preceptors.
Rotation Sites
The East Texas A&M University Dietetic Internship Director is responsible for identifying all supervised practice sites and preceptors. Preceptors are selected based on qualifications and will be reviewed annually. If an intern requests time at a supervised practice site that is not currently under contract with East Texas A&M University, the Dietetic Internship Director will evaluate the preceptor and site and approve it on a case-by-case basis. Any site requested by the intern must allow for competencies to be met.
Distance Education
Distance Education is not currently offered by East Texas A&M University.
RD Examination – Eligibility Requirements
Master’s degree Requirement from 2024
Effective January 1, 2024, the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) requires a minimum of a master’s degree to be eligible to take the credentialing exam to become a registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN). To be approved for registration examination eligibility with a bachelor’s degree, an individual must meet all eligibility requirements and be submitted into CDR’s Registration Eligibility Processing System (REPS) before 12:00 midnight Central Time, December 31, 2023. For more information about this requirement visit CDR’s website. In addition, CDR requires that individual’s complete coursework and supervised practice in program(s) accredited by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND).
Requirements to Become a Registered Dietitian
To become a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN), individuals must meet several key requirements. As of January 1, 2024, candidates must hold a graduate degree (master’s or higher) from an accredited institution. Additionally, they must complete an ACEND-accredited dietetic program and fulfill a supervised practice experience through a dietetic internship or coordinated program. After completing these requirements, candidates are eligible to sit for the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) national exam. Many states also require licensures to practice, with specific regulations varying by state. Our dietetic internship program is designed to meet the supervised practice requirement, providing comprehensive experiences in clinical, community, and food service settings. Upon successful completion, graduates are eligible to take the RDN exam and pursue state licensure, where applicable. Please navigate to the following link for state licensure information: Commission on Dietetic Registration
Program Policies and Procedures
Intern Performance Monitoring and Retention Policy
The objective of the student retention policy is to support students in successfully completing the dietetic internship program and achieving their educational and professional goals. Retention support services include early intervention, academic advising, career counseling, mentorship, and mental health resources.
Students will undergo regular assessments at predetermined intervals to gauge their progress and identify areas for improvement. These assessments will be followed by constructive feedback, which may include one-on-one meetings with preceptors or supervisors, or interns. All evaluations and feedback provided are documented and maintained for record-keeping purposes. Students who require additional support to meet program requirements will be provided with resources and support services, including tutoring, counseling, or academic advising. In cases where students are identified as not meeting performance expectations, individualized remediation plans will be developed to support their improvement in future rotations. If the evaluation is significantly unsatisfactory, the intern may be required to redo the rotation before completing the internship. No intern may be excused from any rotation, even if prior work experience in the area can be verified.
Repeating Rotations and/or Dismissal
Rotations or assignments may be repeated one time on up to 3 occasions if the evaluations indicate that competencies were not achieved, or behavior did not meet standards. If intern performance shows little chance for continued success, the intern will be counseled on alternate career paths. If the Dietetic Internship Director determines that an intern has not satisfactorily completed any required remedial assignments or activities due to poor evaluations on one or more rotations (during the specified time frame), it may be necessary to dismiss the intern from the program. Prior to dismissal, a formal warning is provided to the intern. Then, a review process is instigated which includes the Dietetic Internship Director and the Preceptor(s) if applicable. Potential reasons for dismissal could include theft, frequent absences or tardiness, inappropriate behavior with patients or clients, or insubordination with a preceptor or supervisor of a department in a facility.
Supervised Practice Equitable Treatment Policy
The objective of the Supervised Practice Equitable Treatment Policy is to ensure fair and equitable treatment of all students participating in supervised practice experiences within the Dietetic Internship Program.
- Non-Discrimination: The program prohibits discrimination based on race, color, ethnicity, national origin, sex, gender identity, religion, age, disability, or any other protected characteristic.
- Equal Access: All students will have equal access to supervised practice opportunities, regardless of personal characteristics or background.
- Accommodation: The program will provide reasonable accommodations to students with disabilities to ensure they can fully participate in supervised practice experiences. Students requiring accommodation should notify program faculty or staff in advance to make necessary arrangements.
- Confidentiality: Information shared by students during supervised practice experiences will be treated with confidentiality and respect for privacy rights. All intern information is protected in accordance with The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974.
Grievance Policy
The objective of the Grievance Policy is to provide a fair and transparent process for resolving student grievances related to the Dietetic Internship Program. A grievance is defined as a formal complaint or concern raised by an intern regarding any aspect of the program, including but not limited to academic matters, program administration, discrimination, harassment, or violation of program policies. Students are encouraged to attempt to resolve grievances informally by discussing their concerns with the Program Director. If the grievance cannot be resolved informally, the student may proceed with a formal grievance.
Formal Grievance Procedure:
- The student must submit a written grievance to the Program Director or designated grievance officer within a reasonable timeframe from the occurrence of the incident or concern.
- The written grievance should include a clear description of the issue, relevant facts, any supporting documentation, and desired resolution.
- Upon receipt of the grievance, the Program Director or designated grievance officer will initiate an investigation into the matter.
- The investigation may involve gathering additional information, interviewing relevant parties, and reviewing applicable policies and procedures.
- The Program Director or designated grievance officer will provide a written response to the student within a reasonable timeframe, outlining the findings of the investigation and any actions taken or proposed resolutions.
- If the student is not satisfied with the outcome of the formal grievance process, they may appeal the decision through the program’s appeals procedure.
All grievances will be handled with confidentiality to the extent possible, respecting the privacy rights of all parties involved. The program prohibits any retaliation against the student who raises a grievance in good faith.
Health and Safety Policy
The objective of the Health and Safety Policies is to promote a safe and healthy learning environment for all students participating in the Dietetic Internship Program. The program will comply with all applicable federal, state, and local health and safety regulations. Students will be provided with information and training on emergency procedures, including evacuation routes, emergency contact numbers, and protocols for responding to medical emergencies. Students must provide documentation of up-to-date immunizations as required by the program and affiliated clinical sites. Students will adhere to infection control practices and protocols to minimize the risk of spreading infectious diseases in clinical and food service settings. Students will receive training on safety practices relevant to their supervised practice experiences, including food handling safety, equipment operation, and workplace ergonomics. Students are required to report any accidents, injuries, or safety concerns to program faculty or staff immediately. The program will provide access to resources and support services to promote student health and wellness, including counseling services, stress management workshops, and recreational activities.
Liability for Safety in Travel to or from Assigned Areas
Interns are responsible for their own safety when traveling to and from supervised practice sites. The program does not assume liability for accidents, injuries, or other incidents occurring during travel. Interns are encouraged to carry personal auto insurance and ensure their vehicle is in safe operating condition for travel to assigned areas. It is the intern’s responsibility to plan routes and travel times to ensure punctuality and safety.
Injury or Illness While in a Facility for Supervised Practice
If an intern becomes injured or ill while at a supervised practice site, they must immediately inform both the site preceptor and the program director. The intern should seek medical attention if necessary. Any injuries or illnesses must be documented, and the intern may be required to provide a medical release before returning to the site. The intern is responsible for any costs associated with medical care. The program does not provide medical insurance but encourages interns to have personal health coverage during the internship.
Process for Submission of Written Complaints to ACEND
In the event that an intern believes the program is not in compliance with ACEND accreditation standards and all other options with the program and institution have been exhausted, a formal written complaint can be submitted to ACEND. Complaints must be submitted in writing and include documentation of the issue. ACEND’s contact information and instructions for submitting complaints can be found on the ACEND website. Interns are encouraged to first address concerns through the program’s grievance procedures before contacting ACEND.
Professionalism
Interns are expected to demonstrate professional behavior at all times, including respect for peers, faculty, preceptors, patients, clients, and other members of the healthcare team. Interns must communicate effectively and professionally in all written and verbal interactions, including emails, phone calls, and face-to-face conversations. Interns should exercise discretion and professionalism in their use of social media and online platforms, refraining from posting content that could reflect negatively on themselves or the program.
Dress Code Policy
Interns will be expected to dress professionally, and appropriate to the specific rotations at all times. Certain clothing items may be expected to be purchased before the rotations begin, including non-slip shoes, or business casual clothing items. Interns are also expected to maintain good personal hygiene and grooming habits to uphold professional standards of appearance.
Attendance Policy
Students are allowed up to three approved absences during the internship year. Any need for leave beyond this should be approved by the Program Director. Interns may request a leave of absence for medical reasons, personal emergencies, or other extenuating circumstances that prevent them from participating in the program.
To request a leave of absence, students must submit a written request to the Program Director or designated faculty member, providing a detailed explanation of the reason for the request and proposed duration of the leave. Leave of absence requests will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Approval will be granted at the discretion of the Program Director, taking into consideration the student’s circumstances and program requirements. The duration of a leave of absence may vary depending on the circumstances but typically should not exceed 1 week.
A leave of absence may impact the student’s anticipated program completion date. The program will work with the student to develop a plan for completing missed requirements and resuming their rotations upon return.
Graduation and/or Program Completion Requirements
To successfully graduate from the dietetic internship program, interns must complete all supervised practice hours and assignments, meet all CRDN competencies, and maintain a minimum overall grade of 80%. All program requirements must be completed within 150% of the program’s designated timeframe (i.e., within 13.5 months for a 9-month program). Failure to meet these requirements within the allotted time may result in dismissal from the program.
Academic Dishonesty
Graduate students at East Texas A&M University are expected to maintain high standards of integrity and honesty in all their scholastic work. Faculty and staff members are expected to uphold and support student integrity and honesty by maintaining conditions that encourage and enforce academic honesty. Conduct that violates generally accepted standards of academic honesty is defined as academically dishonest. Please see what is considered “Academic Dishonesty”, and the disciplinary actions here: 13.99.99.R0.10.pdf
Access to Personal Files
In accordance with ACEND standards and university policy, dietetic interns have the right to access and review their own personal and educational files maintained by the Dietetic Internship Program. Interns may request access to their files by contacting the Dietetic Internship Director.
Withdrawal of Program
An intern wishing to withdraw from the DI before the end of a semester must clear their record by filing an application for voluntary withdrawal on a form which can be secured online at: Withdrawal Form or from the Office of the Registrar. This is a withdrawal from the semester, not the university. DI Fee deposit will not be refunded. If any conference registration fees or travel expenses had been purchased for the intern prior to withdrawal from the program, those costs will not be refunded and will be deducted from the refund amount. Refunds will follow the refund calendar found on the Academic Calendars.
