Stereotyping as a barrier to collaboration: Does interprofessional education make a difference?
This research was part of a Health Canada funded initiative developed to provide evidence about the effectiveness of interprofessional education (IPE) interventions to promote collaborative patient-centred care. Health professional students' ratings of health professions and the effect of IPE on those ratings were examined. Participants were divided into three groups (N=51); control, education, and practice site immersion.

Interdisciplinary training for rural care: Some North American experiences
This editorial emphasizes forging strong rural community-campus partnerships as a context for rural health professional education. An important aspect of this rural training initiative is the goal of simultaneously developing and enhancing rural health care delivery. The ways in which universal issues of rural life mix with local culture and health needs require training programs and delivery of services that are sensitive to these universals but are locally specific. In addition, there are major differences between urban- and rural-based interdisciplinary training experiences.
Continuous quality improvement in health professions education
This editorial calls attention to a major U.S. interprofessional initiative, the Interdisciplinary Professional Educational Collaborative (IPEC), designed to introduce continuous quality improvement into interdisciplinary health professions education. Continuous quality improvement thinking and methods are now widespread in U.S. health care delivery.
Examining the intersections between continuing education, interprofessional education and workplace learning
In this editorial, the authors discuss three distinct, yet overlapping, fields – continuing education (CE), interprofessional education (IPE) and workplace learning (WPL) – can inform each other and extend our conceptual, theoretical and empirical understanding of continuing interprofessional education (CIPE) in the workplace. There are substantial challenges to achieving the aims as the individual fields continue to evolve (and contain areas of variation and contestation) over their definitions, use of theories and deployment as educational interventions in the healthcare system.
