Learning with, from and about collaborative team-based care: An Open Education Resource for all

“Learning with, from and about collaborative team-based care: An Open Education
Resource for all”

With Dr. Moni Fricke, Dr. Laura MacDonald & Michelle Boyce

Session Description:

Interprofessional education is an accreditation criterion for many health professional education programs. With limited resources, educators face on-going challenges in
ensuring all learners meet a minimum level of exposure. The University of Manitoba Office of Interprofessional Collaboration has created a free and accessible asynchronous module, building on a foundation previously delivered at the University of Toronto. With updated references, infographics and video clips of those with lived experiences, the module describes the six competency domains of the CIHC Competency Framework for Advancing Collaboration (CIHC, 2024), essential for collaborative team-based care and services. This session will introduce the module, its background, development and on-going evaluation efforts.
