IPE Curriculum 

Collaborative Team Paced Learning 

IPE is a collaborative team-paced program. Team-paced means that while there is some flexibility in the timing of individual contributions, teams will work together to set expectations for how outcomes will be achieved. Teams count on the contributions of all members to be successful. Students will be working in teams across several semesters, so it is important to learn to work together and to work to learn together.    

We advise all students to become familiar with the individual expectations and timelines so they can contribute to their team’s deliverables at the “top of their scope.”    

The Interprofessional Education (IPE) Program develops, administers and evaluates the longitudinal interprofessional education curriculum for the health professions students on the CU Anschutz Medical Campus. 

The IPE Program brings students together to learn and practice skills during their preclinical and clinical training. 

IPE at Anschutz consists of 3 components: classroom team paced learning, simulation experiences at the Center for Assessing Professional Excellence (CAPE), and practicum experiences at clinical sites. 

The curriculum aims to prepare AMC graduates to be competent to participate as members of a collaborative interprofessional workforce.
