The LIU Post Dietetic Internship (DI) is a graduate-level advanced certificate program that prepares students to sit for the Registration Examination for Dietitians (RD Exam), administered by the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) (https://www.cdrnet.org/certifications/registered-dietitian-rd-certification). Through coursework and supervised clinical experiences, students are equipped with the skills and knowledge to serve communities through the promotion of optimal nutrition, health and well-being. The need for dietetics practitioners is expected to increase as the health care community places a greater emphasis on the benefits of healthy eating, disease prevention and medical nutrition therapy. Upon successful completion of the Dietetic Internship, a Certificate of Advanced Studies is awarded, and students are eligible to sit for the (RD Exam). Upon passing the (RD Exam), a student will become a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN).
Graduates can also obtain New York State (NYS) certification as a Certified Dietitian-Nutritionist (CDN) by completing an application and submitting the $294 fee. An exam is not required for the CDN if the RDN has already been earned. Information on the CDN
application process is available Here. For information on regulation of state licensure for the profession of dietetics, visit the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics’ (Academy) Licensure and Professional Regulation of Dietitians page at www.eatright.org.
