The Dietary Manager technical diploma program is designed for employees in hospital, nursing home, corrections, and school food service operations who have management potential.
Coursework includes food management, nutrition, personnel management, and a field experience.
A registered dietitian at your worksite or in conjunction with the instructor will coordinate and supervise the clinical assignments in the field experience. Based on your interests and the needs of the facility, you will select a major project to complete by the end of the program. The MATC program is accredited by the Dietary Managers Association, and is designed to meet the requirements for membership in the association. The hospitality and health care industries are continuing to grow. Graduates of the program become dietary managers or food service supervisors in hospitals, long-term care facilities, school food service, retirement homes, corrections facilities, and similar food service operations.
