Call for Posters

The IPEC Poster Fair provides an opportunity to share interprofessional education for collaborative (IPECP) projects and practices implemented by health professions schools and programs and their colleagues. IPEC welcomes posters sharing interprofessional projects and practices across all disciplines, and at various stages of development and implementation.

A free online event, the showcase is a venue to show your IPECP experiences in exploring, designing, and/or implementing interprofessional activities.

IPEC Institute Posters

Committed to advancing substantive interprofessional learning experiences that prepare health professionals for enhanced team-based care of patients and improved population health outcomes, IPEC hosts two team-based Faculty Development Institutes a year (Spring and Fall) for teams to identify an institutionally based project and develop an implementation plan to embed interprofessional education within their health professions schools. This collection includes posters that describe the development and implementation of these projects.

To view the poster catalog, click on each IPEC Institute.
