Tools from the National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education: An interactive workshop featuring tools to support your IPECP interests

1:00 - 5:00 pm

The National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education is pleased to offer an interactive workshop to conference attendees.  During this workshop, National Center staff will showcase the National Center’s Resource Exchange, a community-led, fully searchable source for information about interprofessional education and collaborative practice, from articles and images to videos and presentations. 

Two collections will be featured as a part of this workshop, including:

  • A curated collection of 26 validated measurement instruments used for interprofessional education and collaborative practice research
  • A searchable database of more than 500 articles collected through a systematic review of the interprofessional education and collaborative practice research literature from 2008 to present focused on the impact of this area of inquiry on the outcomes identified in the Triple Aim

For each collection, National Center staff will highlight the criteria used for inclusion along with strategies for how to use and deploy the resources locally. Objectives include:

  • Explain how the National Center’s social network is building collections through the Resource Exchange and making them widely available to IPECP stakeholders
  • Understand the issues and opportunities of the open access collections in the Resource Exchange and how to contribute
  • Understand the criteria and framework used to create two online collections in the Resource Exchange (measurement instruments and IPECP literature compendium)
  • Explain how individuals might use the collections to support their work with learners and program staff

Participants are encouraged to bring a laptop or mobile device to for hands-on experience with the collections during the workshop.

Workshop presenters include:

  • Barbara Brandt, PhD, Director, National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education
  • Jane Miller, PhD, Director, Interprofessional Education and Resource Center, University of Minnesota Academic Health Center
  • Sean Lind, MLS, Resource Exchange Program Manager, National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education
