The resulting interprofessional continuing education partnership (ICEP) was awarded Joint Accreditation in 2016, which is a new distinction from the three global leaders in healthcare continuing education accreditation.

In December 2022, ICEP earned Joint Accreditation with Commendation. The partnership met the commendation criteria by addressing population health issues in collaboration with community organizations, enhancing learner skills through hands-on education, engaging in healthcare quality improvement and conducting research in interprofessional continuing education.

We are excited to be leaders in the development of team-based interprofessional continuing education, living the Wisconsin Idea.

The ICEP Mission

To provide exemplary and innovative accredited interprofessional continuing education that improves the skills and strategies of healthcare teams, leading to healthy patients and communities.
