Common questions

How long does it take?

Most students finish in three to six months working part time. There is no fixed schedule and no penalty for taking longer.

Is there a practice exam?

Yes. A study guide with practice examination is available separately and is strongly recommended before sitting the final.

What if I do not pass?

Retakes are permitted. We would rather you sit it twice than have a credential that does not mean anything.

Does this let me practice as a dietitian?

No. See the programs page — this is a private certification, not RDN credentialing or state licensure.
