IPE - Competency based learning

The AAMC, as a partner in the Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC), has announced a call for submissions for competency-based learning and assessment resources, in support of the IPEC Core Competencies for Interprofessional Collaborative Practice report. Funded in part by the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation, this initiative is designed to create a national clearinghouse of competency-linked learning resources for interprofessional education and models of team-based or collaborative care. The AAMC, with guidance from the IPEC-MedEdPORTAL Advisory Committee, will select up to fifteen (15) applicants for resource development awards of $2,000 to accelerate content refinement in preparation for formal submission and peer-review to MedEdPORTAL. The award application deadline is Friday, May 25, 2012 at 5p (EDT) with applicants notified of funding decisions by June 18, 2012. http://www.mededportal.org/ipe
