Leadership

Demonstrate your institution’s clear commitment to team-based continuing education while strengthening your programs, gaining economies of scale, and contributing to scalable health care improvement initiatives.

Health Workers

Earn continuing education credits, maintain your licensures and certifications, and enhance your knowledge in an accredited team-based and dynamic interprofessional continuing education program.

Patients

Seek care at institutions that put a focus on collaboration — both in continuing education and clinical practice. When teams learn with and from one another, the outcomes of your care improve.

Health Systems

Build more equitable and integrated healthcare systems that prioritize the outcomes of patients and shared knowledge. IPCE provides a lens through which practitioners, institutions, and systems improve outcomes and models.

When we learn together, we do better — for ourselves and those for whom we care.

Collaborative Care, the Big Benefit of Interprofessional Continuing Education

At its core, interprofessional continuing education creates a more collaborative, team-based approach to continuing education and, in turn, clinical practice.

Working together, health workers deliver more effective treatments, build mutually respectful workplaces, and collaborate to care — for each other and for patients.
