What is IPE?

Interprofessional Education (IPE) is “when individuals from two or more professions learn about, from, and with each other to enable effective collaboration…” (WHO, 2010). IPE has four core competencies that assist individuals in building their skills to effectively collaborate across sectors. The One Health IPE Program brings individuals from the animal, human and plant sectors to learn about IPE in more detail and apply it to a variety of AMR case studies.

Who Should Participate?

The program seeks representation from all the One Health Sectors and individuals at a variety of career stages. Individuals should be active in the human, animal, environment, or plant sectors and want to learn more about how we can work together to combat antimicrobial resistance. Sessions are held virtually and allow participation regardless of location within North America.
