Presenting at CAB 2025:

This presentation will share best practices in interprofessional education (IPE) grounded in core JEDI values and skill sets. Three exemplar active-learning activities that 1) shape behaviors for anti-oppressive, equitable care delivery, 2) advocate for social justice and equity, and 3) build on the core competency of JEDI as a life-long learning process will be described.
This presentation will share our design and outcomes of a multi-modal faculty development program aimed to improve confidence and competence in debriefing interprofessional simulations containing racial and gender-based microaggressions. Learn how this initiative prepared faculty to lead JEDI conversations and reinforced a commitment to psychologically safe, anti-oppressive, interprofessional learning.
