In February 2019, the Health Professions Accreditors Collaborative and the National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education published a guidance document on developing quality interprofessional education (IPE). Quality IPE was expected to include experiences throughout the length of the program, offering didactic, clinical and extracurricular experiences targeting Interprofessional Education Collaborative competencies. There is limited IPE research extending past a single event or one semester. Additionally, there is less research using qualitative methods to understand student perspectives of learning after a two-year IPE curriculum (using didactic and a community-based health education experience). Join us to hear from an interprofessional student panel (medicine and speech-language pathology) on their perspectives of interprofessional learning during and after engaging in a longitudinal two-year experience.

Learning Objectives:

Identify characteristics of high quality interprofessional education (IPE).
Summarize student perceptions of a longitudinal IPE curriculum.
Recognize opportunities for enhancement of IPE experience based on student perceptions.
