Preceptor Training

 

Practice Area Specific Competency Training

We encourage you to view videos for all practice areas. This may give you ideas for intern projects, as well as provide a better understanding of what our interns have to look forward to this year! These videos are ~20-25 minutes each.

Once you have viewed all videos, please take time to reflect on your intern's schedule to meet the competencies. Then please complete page 2 of this form and email to dieteticinternship@IllinoisState.edu. Once received, we will provide your CEU certificate!

Encouraged Training

Our internship program is committed to supporting inclusion, diversity, equity, and access (IDEA) in Nutrition and Dietetics. Throughout the year, we will share resources to help preceptors stay current on strategies for promoting IDEA.  The Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND) offers a series of webinars to address IDEA. These webinars are free, and all preceptors are invited to view. If you are an academy member, you can access the full set of trainings and CPEU certificates here: https://www.eatrightpro.org/acend/about-acend/diversity-equity-and-inclusion  
If you are not an academy member, you can access the trainings following the links below. Then email dieteticinternship@ilstu.edu once you have completed a training and we will email you the associated CDR certificate(s).
