Supervised Practice IV - Elective Rotation

Catalog description

This seminar is designed to complement and enhance the practical knowledge and skills gained through supervised practice in nutrition elective settings of the student’s choice. Weekly online, synchronous meetings serve as a platform for students to engage in critical discussions, reflect on their experiential learning, demonstrate negotiation skills, enhance professionalism, and engage in activities that are necessary for successful transition from student to entry level practitioner, such as billing and coding for nutrition services and preparing professional development portfolios. Students will perform self-assessment of learning, leadership and cultural orientation styles, advocate for professional opportunities, mentor others and articulate the value of precepting others. Students will be required to attend online RDN exam study sessions throughout the semester. Students will be concurrently placed in supervised practice rotations in nutrition elective settings of their choice for a minimum of 200hrs.
