This study describes and compares evaluation feedback from students in undergraduate nursing and medicine programmes about the learning outcomes of an interprofessional education initiative. Findings were interpreted to indicate that students from both programmes valued the learning outcomes, and this was greater at the end of the session. Notably, the perceived value of interprofessional learning was higher for nursing students than medical students before and after the session. This finding may be related to the familiarity nursing students may have with the teaching methods used in the initiative. Further exploration of this finding is needed so educators can better understand how they can provide optimal learning experiences for all students who participate in interprofessional education.
