Participation in Interprofessional education (IPE) activities is an expectation for matriculated students attending MCHP. Students must attend IPE events as scheduled to successfully fulfill this requirement. At times, students are required to self-schedule an IPE event; schedules are locked 7 calendar days before an IPE event. Students who would like to request a change within 7 days of the IPE event must speak with the IPE director to request a schedule change. IPE activities are created to enable students to address one or more of the Interprofessional Education Collaborative’s 4 Core Competencies (2016): Values/Ethics for Interprofessional Practice, Roles/Responsibilities, Interprofessional Communication, Teams, and Teamwork.
Students are required to complete IPE activities each semester as a graduation requirement. If not completed during the semester required, the student will earn a failed course and must follow the academic probation policy.
