Hello Everyone,
My first post and hope someone can help me. I'm working on a project with a local school of social work and clinical psychology. We have a grant to use pharmacy, SW and psychology students (with supervision) in clinics to help families affected by addiction. In two weeks we're getting our teams together (1 learner of each profession X 7 teams so 21 learners). I've been tasked to create some sort of team building exercise (30 min!) which 1) introduces the individuals to each other and 2) inroduces them to the professions.
