There are four competencies for IPP. One involves values and ethics, which speaks to the importance of mutual respect and shared values. A second competency is related to roles and responsibilities. This competency speaks to the importance of using the knowledge of your own role and those of others to assess and address our students’ needs. Third is interprofessional communication, and the importance of interacting with others in a positive and professional way. And finally, teamwork involves a team-based approach to develop roles effectively for the effective planning and delivery of support for your students (Mulvey, 2016). We will dive in to how to utilize these strategies to have productive meetings.
