Why was Brescia the right choice for me?
Bold Stories
“
The DDEPT program not only allowed me to explore my ambitions of becoming a Dietitian,
but fully understand my aspirations in the field. While in the program, I completed
one of my placements at Humber River Hospital. I loved it because it didn’t feel like
work, it felt like I was following my passion.
”
“
The Diploma in Dietetic Education and Practical Training Program (DDEPT) provided
me with an opportunity to be trained professionally in a wide variety of healthcare
settings. The placement plan was tailored to meet my professional interest and career
goals.
”
“
All my placements were extremely different from one another. I had the chance to work
in community health centres, hospitals, long term care homes, grocery stores, and
family health teams, in areas including bariatrics, diabetes, management, surgery,
GI conditions, NICU and pediatrics, retail dietetics, and food skill development.
