Internationally Educated dietitians, who have been assessed by a provincial dietetic regulatory body as requiring an internship or practicum program, must have an assessment completed by DC to determine academic equivalencies for internship application through the Dietitians of Canada Dietetic Internship Match. Those considering application to a DC accredited Masters Practicum program may also require a Dietitians of Canada assessment.
