Prospective ISPP Interns
An ISPP is an alternate ACEND-accredited distance pathway designed for individuals that currently have a nutrition-related doctoral degree. Upon completion of the ISPP, interns will be qualified to sit for the national board registration examination. Interns in an ISPP are required to contact their own preceptors to set up their supervised practice experience. Previous Learning experiences will be considered once a Previous Learning Application (PLA) is completed and submitted. The DI Director reserves the right to award hours and completion of competencies as determined by the PLA.

“Florida State ISPP program gave me the opportunity to continue my path towards becoming an RD in a completely individualized dietetic internship while still having the guidance and resources that FSU offers. It allowed me to really focus on the areas of nutrition I am interested in while still gaining well rounded experiences”
