Employment Outcomes among Registered Dietitians following Graduation in Manitoba.
Canadian Journal of Dietetic Practice and Research 2018 November 16
PURPOSE: The study objectives were to (i) describe employment outcomes among Registered Dietitians (RDs) who graduated from the University of Manitoba, (ii) test for differences in employment outcomes according to graduation year, and (iii) compare preferred area of practice and geography prior to employment with past and current employment.
METHODS: Graduates of the Human Nutritional Sciences program (2006-2015) were invited to participate in an online survey. Data on respondent demographics, education, and employment outcomes were collected.
RESULTS: Overall, 133 (68%) respondents self-identified as RDs. RDs who had graduated between 2006 and 2011 were significantly more likely to secure employment within 6 months post-graduation compared with RDs that graduated between 2012 and 2015. Geographically, although 56% of RDs did not wish to gain experience in rural/remote communities upon graduating, 44% of these respondents reported working part- or full-time in a rural/remote location at some point during their career.
CONCLUSION: Findings indicate that a substantial number of RDs in Manitoba are employed in a rural or remote location despite acknowledging that it is not a preferred location. Future research is needed to explore the views and experiences of new and established RDs toward rural or remote practice, including preparedness for practice.
