Interprofessional education at Manchester Met
Developing your skills and ability to work in interprofessional teams.
Enhance your interprofessional learning
When things go wrong in health and social care practice, it’s often due to ineffective teamwork or a breakdown in communication among team members.
Interprofessional education (IPE) is an essential aspect of all undergraduate degrees within the Faculty of Health, Psychology and Social Care.
The programme, funded by Health Education England, provides students with the opportunity to improve collaboration and understanding of other professional roles by learning from each other from across all disciplines.
To support this, interprofessional education will help develop your communication and collaboration skills, strengthening your essential expertise to deliver better quality health and social care provision.
