Cultivating grassroots IPE: The Dalhousie University experience

Pages 96-97 | Received 22 May 2012, Accepted 03 Aug 2012, Published online: 11 Sep 2012
 

Abstract

A bottom-up and menu-based approach to embedding interprofessional education (IPE) into the curricula of more than 20 health profession programs at Dalhousie University is described. In addition to adopting an IPE graduation requirement and a common time for IPE activities, progress appears to have been facilitated by placing responsibility directly with the schools that own the curricula rather than with a central office for IPE.
