Presenting at CAB 2025:
During this session, we will describe our experience in building and training a diverse facilitator cohort for IPE workshops that includes both teaching faculty and clinicians from different professions, disciplines and settings. The assessment of the impact of participation in IPE facilitator training and workshops on facilitators will be presented.
The Duke Interprofessional Education and Care (IPEC) Center utilized an online platform, Jamboard, for an activity called “Pieces of the Pie” where students could share their profession specific values and roles. This activity is scalable, cost-efficient, and allows a large number of students to interact during a foundational interprofessional workshop.
