CAIPE Services

Workshops, Consultancy and Expert Speakers

Part of CAIPE’s mission is to support services to develop their interprofessional education in order to enhance collaborative practices and improve service user /carer outcomes. To help achieve this aspiration, CAIPE offer bespoke, interactive, workshops and consultancy to organisations both nationally and internationally

As a national and international authoritative voice on interprofessional education and collaborative practice in both universities and in the workplace across health and social care and beyond, CAIPE claims special expertise founded on its members, its publications and its development activities.

We can help you with strategic planning, design, delivery, management and assessment of interprofessional learning.

Workshops

There are now so many excellent examples of how organisations have a well-established structure in place for delivering effective IPE.  Others may be struggling with specific aspects and others still, needing help to build their IPE structure. 

Wherever you are in your IPE journey CAIPE can offer interactive, participatory workshops, led by national and international experts that are designed to suit your organisation’s specific requirements.  As part of our workshop provision our experts will work with your team to understand your context and needs.

Workshop content and deliverables will be developed to meet your specific needs and aspirations.  These can vary in length and be held in person or online via Zoom or Teams.  We will work with you to ensure the content, length and style of workshop meets your requirements.  

The specific focus of your workshop(s) might be broad or very specific.  Below is a list of previously developed workshops that can support organisations at any stage in the IPE journey, ranging from strategy development to leadership in IPE. Whatever you need we can work with you to develop a workshop that is bespoke to your requirements.

  • Creating an IPE Strategy
  • Introducing IPE within your organisation
  • Developing Quality Facilitators for IPE (Faculty, practice educators, experts by experience and students)
