What is Interprofessional Education

“Interprofessional education occurs when students from two or more professions learn about, from, and with each other to enable effective collaboration and improve health outcomes. Once students understand how to work interprofessionally, they are ready to enter the workplace as a member of the collaborativepractice team. This is a key step in moving health systems from fragmentation to a position of strength.”
