Summary

Interprofessional education was originally defined by the Centre for the Advancement of Interprofessional Education in 1997 and clearly articulated in 2002 (Barr 2002). There has been international agreement that it ‘occurs when two or more professions learn about, from and with each other to enable effective collaboration and improve health outcomes’ (World Health Organization 2010: p. 13). This definition implies that students from different professions must come together in the learning process to achieve their intended learning outcomes. In this way, students bring their uniprofessional specific knowledge and skills into interprofessional learning to mirror the complexity of team-based clinical practice.

Interprofessional education has existed in the formal preregistration curriculum for about 15 years, and is affirmed as essential by the General Medical Council in Outcomes for Graduates (General Medical Council 2018). As a result, students are emerging from preregistration courses primed to learn in this way.
