Wellness Workdays Interns Reach 100% Pass Rate on RD Exam

The RD exam represents the final hurdle for aspiring dietitians, often causing significant stress as students balance supervised practice with rigorous study requirements. Wellness Workdays designed its proprietary prep course to align with the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) exam content outline, integrating study guides, educational webinars, and simulated practice exams to bridge the gap between internship experience and testing mastery.

Debra Wein, CEO and founder of the program, noted that the initiative aims to support interns through a pivotal transition in their careers. Caitlin Dunn, the program manager, added that providing a clear, structured roadmap allows students to apply their knowledge effectively before entering the testing center. This focus on preparation carries increased weight following the CDR’s recent decision to implement a lifetime limit of eight exam attempts for candidates who establish eligibility starting January 1, 2027.

Beyond exam readiness, the Boston-based program offers flexible pathways, including options for part-time or full-time completion and integrated graduate degree tracks. Through partnerships with institutions like the Boston Celtics and various universities, the internship provides specialized concentrations in fields such as sports nutrition and worksite wellness, allowing future dietitians to tailor their training to specific professional goals.
