ABOUT THE IPE
MPH students must participate in one IPE event like this one to satisfy their degree requirement.  Although attendance at only one IPE is required during the MPH course of study, students who have attended a previous session are also welcome to attend.  Students in other degree programs in the College are welcome to attend as well. 
The focus of this training will be Promoting Physical Activity among Older Adults - an Interdisciplinary Approach. In these sessions, students will have the opportunity to develop their competency in interprofessional practice.
 
MPH students must complete the IPE prerequisite course before the event. This prerequisite course - Interprofessional Practice for Population Health - is a free and self-paced course and is available at: . 
You are not required to request continuing education (CE) credits for the course - a screenshot of your course completion screen or email is sufficient to satisfy your prerequisite for this training. Retain this documentation - you will be required to submit it later.  You will receive an IPE Canvas course invitation the week before the event with learning materials and instructions.
