We are dedicated to the advancement of interprofessional education and interprofessional collaboration. We work with the 15 health and human service programs at UBC to develop learning experiences that give students from different disciplines opportunities to learn about, from and with each other. We also collaborate with the British Columbia health authorities, other post-secondary institutions, as well as national and international organizations working towards interprofessional education and collaboration.
The College of Health and Care Professionals of BC regulates nine health professions to ensure practitioners provide safe, ethical, and high-quality care, thereby protecting public health and well-being.
