Core Interprofessional eLearning Modules

 

Introduction to Interprofessional Team-Based Care

These core interprofessional modules cover the foundational knowledge of team-based care and collaborative practice. The modules use a case-based learning approach with realistic scenarios of patients and families seen in a variety of primary care settings. General categories of interprofessional competencies, such as knowledge of team members’ roles, communication and conflict-management strategies, are embedded in actual primary care situations and decisions.

In 2020, the modules were updated to include instructional Companion Guides and Certificates of Completion. The Instructional Companion Guides include supplemental activities to implement module content into classroom and clinical experiences.

In 2024, the modules will be completely updated and re-released as a full eLearning course with digital badge and continuing education credits.
