Scottish Cluster Dietetic Placements (SCDP)

Welcome to the Scottish Cluster Dietetic Placement (SCDP) website.

The information contained in these pages has been developed by the three Universities in Scotland where dietetic students are trained: Glasgow Caledonian University, Glasgow; Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh; and The Robert Gordon University, Aberdeen. Click on the logos above to be redirected to the course information from each University.

Current dietetic students will find lots of useful information including an overview of the clinical placements undertaken as part of their course, brief summaries about each of the placement providers in Scotland, testimonials from past students on their placement experiences and copies of the various forms that you may have to fill in.

If you are a placement provider we hope that you will find your pages useful. We have included documentation relating to placement approval and monitoring, information on innovative ways to manage placements and details of upcoming relevant courses.

If there is any other information that you think we should include please let us know by completing the feedback form.
