Nursing Professional Development

Designed by Teams and for Teams

Interprofessional collaboration and team‐based care are becoming increasingly important to delivering optimal healthcare. Our approach to professional development is to deliver educational opportunities designed by the health care team for the health care team. We partner across the university and the community to bring multiple areas of expertise into the planning process, so we can identify the most important needs and issues and create opportunities that are both educationally sound and relevant to a broader segment of health care professionals.
