Updated Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC) Core Competencies
Interprofessional practice has the potential to decrease rehospitalization and healthcare costs along with increased patient satisfaction. Therefore, it is important healthcare students learn about interprofessional practice. As students are now learning about this in the classroom, this should be reinforced and practiced in the experiential setting. The UW-Madison Health Science schools have developed this introductory course and toolkit for clinical teachers to review the interprofessional core competencies and activities that can improve experiential teaching of interprofessional practice.
Intended Audience
This is an online course for faculty and preceptors from a variety of professions and levels of experience who will be teaching and modeling interprofessional collaborative practice during clinical learning encounters with health profession students.
Learning Objectives
After completing this activity learners will be able to:
- Define characteristics of Interprofessional Education
- Describe the IPEC Core Competencies.
- Explain the importance of interprofessional collaborative practice and IPE to the future of health care practice.
- Describe ways to promote core competency concepts in clinical teaching.

She is an Assistant Professor in Education Research and Development in the Department of Surgery at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She is currently involved in numerous studies in the areas of undergraduate, graduate, and continuing surgical education. Her background allows her to apply theories of learning to understand how people become expert physicians and how we can support this process to facilitate quality patient care.
Paula Woywod BSN, MSN, teaches undergraduate students both in clinical and simulation environments. She has practice experience in medical surgical, cardiac, and intensive care settings. In addition, she is passionate about enhancing simulation with interprofessional partners in clinical practice and throughout the community.
