ADEA Free Webinar: Connecting Through Interprofessional Partnership to Drive Collaborative Care

Today, 22 health professions require education accreditation standards for interprofessional education (IPE). To assist with this necessity, The American Dental Education Association (ADEA) is inviting the national IPE community to join a series of events that focus on sharing advances in IPE. Beginning with a panel-style ADEA eLearn Webinar, participants will meet representatives from national IPE organizations, learn the benefits of partnership and explore the role of dental professionals on the collaborative care team through examples. The positive nature of interprofessional collaboration will be emphasized throughout the program, which is especially relevant during these challenging times. The webinar will serve as a springboard into future discussions on ADEA Connect, an online platform that connects dental educators with other health professionals to continue the conversation, share best practices and solicit input from the wider community.

This survey is conducted to better understand the state of IPE at academic institutions around the world. You are invited as you have been identified as an IPE Leader/Champion at your academic institution/university who could complete the survey on behalf of your academic institution.

https://uwmadison.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_7UlGJpmvp5RuPrv 

The goal is to have this survey completed by the most appropriate individual/Center/Office who could speak to the interprofessional education program/initiatives on behalf of your academic institution whenever possible. If such an institutional-level person/Center/Office may not exist, we welcome individuals from related academic programs to work together to complete this survey on behalf of your academic institution. Your time and responses are very valuable in this effort. 

The survey involves responding to 24 questions that should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. This survey has received ethical clearance from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the United States, and your participation in the survey is completely voluntary and you can withdraw at any time.

Canadian Interprofessional Health Collaborative Presents Live Webinar on Interprofessional Socialization

Canadian Interprofessional Health Collaborative (CIHC) Live Webinar

Utilizing Interprofessional Socialization as an Effective Approach Towards Creating Dual Identity 

Presenter: Dr. Hossein Khalili, the Lead of InterprofessionalResearch.Global and the Director of University of Wisconsin Centre of Interprofessional Practice and Education (UW CIPE) 

Date & Time: November 17, 2020 | 1:00 PM -2:00 PM ET 

REGISTRATION LINK

The Canadian Interprofessional Health Collaborative (CIHC) invites the global IPECP Community to join us for a live webinar presentation and Q&A with Dr. Hossein Khalili on utilizing interprofessional socialization as an effective approach towards creating dual identity among learners and practitioners. Currently, in health professional training the emphasis is still placed on uniprofessional education, in which learners of each field are socialized in isolation from those in other related professions causing the development of a uniprofessional identity in which learners share trusting and rewarding relationships with those from own profession (in-group favoritism), but would develop hostility and discrimination towards learners/ professionals outside of their own profession (out-group discrimination), as a means to enhance their self-concept. These in-group and out-group behaviours’ (or the ‘turf’ wars) along with the fear of ‘identity loss’ and the lack of understanding and knowledge of each other’s professional roles and perspectives cause the learners/professionals to resist against interprofessional collaborative practice. One effective way to address the uniprofessional identity and its challenges in education and practice is to socialize learners interprofessionally to develop dual professional and interprofessional identity, which will be discussed in this webinar.
