Your Bridge to the Future of Dietetics
Your Bridge to the Future of Dietetics
The Program is a general program preparing graduates to be employed in ANY area of dietetics and where graduates are also employed. As required, it has a Program Concentration of a Nutrition Leadership Project also in ANY area of dietetics—about 5-6 weeks in length and IS UNIQUE to GGDI. It can be in a specialty area the intern would like more focus, depending on preceptor availability etc. This rotation provides Interns the opportunity to practice leading and managing a nutrition project they ELECT, utilizing the 5 Phases of Project Management and Instructional Systems Design (ADDIE). (A project has a finite end where as a future program does not have an end point.) This project is much like a capstone in a MS-degree level program, but is shorter in duration. Project Management competence is also included in ACEND’s future, new model for education in nutrition and dietetics! Lastly, one may pair up with another for the project provided the rotation schedule allows such.
Intern Group Meetings, (some programs call them classes), were at a relatively central location for the Program (usually Zoom or in Santa Rosa or Corte Madera, CA ). Although each Intern may reside near their geographical rotations, they are required attend these meetings. These meetings are for teaching and learning (didactics) and are integral to the GGDI Program and supervised practice. The meetings are opportunities for interns to lead and manage by leading and facilitating meetings. As much as possible, the program is intern-focused because these adults are now college graduates and will be treated as such.
NOTE: During extenuating events, such as with COVID-19 that prohibit larger group gatherings, these meetings took place via ZOOM, online discussions, and electronic presentations asynchronously. Attendance, contribution and collaboration of these replacement activities remain Program completion requirements. At each meeting, an intern still leads the meeting—opportunities to practice skills required now and in the the future!
