The open access document, A Guide for Interprofessional Education and Practice in Nursing Education, published by the National League for Nursing (NLN), has been an invaluable resource in the development of this Toolkit. Thomas Jefferson University has extended its permission to include materials developed by its employees in the NLN document, and the University has indicated that the intent of the NLN document is for users to adapt materi-
als for use in a variety of academic and practice environments. Sections 1 through 5 of this Toolkit have been adapted from the NLN document. http://www.nln.org/docs/default-source/ default-document-library/ipe-toolkit-krk-012716.pdf?sfvrsn=6
The Health Professions Accreditors Collaborative and the National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education have released Guidance on Developing Quality Interprofessional Education for the Health Professions. The Guidance was developed through a multi-year, multi-phase consensus process aimed at supporting the development and implementation of quality interprofessional education (IPE). The goals of the Guidance are
to facilitate the preparation of health professional students for interprofessional collaborative practice through accreditor collaboration and to provide consensus guidance to enable institutions to develop, implement, and evaluate systematic IPE approaches and IPE plans. https://healthprofessionsaccreditors.org/ipe-guidance/
