CIPER Associates and Scholars
In response to the need for interprofessional faculty development on Creighton’s many campuses, CIPER established the Associates and Scholars program this fall. The purpose of the program is to develop Interprofessional Education (IPE) champions who will work to advance CIPER’s mission, vision, and strategic plan at Creighton University. We hope that upon program completion, participants will be able to:
- Articulate the benefits of IPE and IPCP for learners and patients
- Describe interprofessional learning outcomes for the Creighton University health sciences graduate
- Develop strategies to effectively implement IPE and IPCP in their practice settings
- This initiative is led by Andrea Thinnes, OTD, OTR/L, FNAP and Wendi Carlton, MD, FAAP
