Learning and Teaching for Interprofessional Practice (Australia)

We are a team of university academics and health service practitioners based at the University of Sydney and the University of Technology Sydney. The project is led by Alison Lee, Professor at the Centre for Research in Learning and Change, University of Technology, Sydney, and Jill Thistlethwaite, Associate Professor of medical education at the University of Sydney and a member of CIPHER, the Centre for Innovation in Professional Health Education and Research. We have also established an advisory Reference Group with eleven national and four inteernational consultants with expertise in the field.

We have received funding from the Carrick Institute for Learning and Teaching in Higher Education Ltd to: significantly increase the capacity of the Australian higher education sector to graduate health professionals who have acquired well developed interprofessional learning (IPL) and interprofessional practice (IPP) capabilities.
