What is distinctive about the IPPC curriculum?
IPPC is distinctive in including learning activities and resources/tools that are behaviorally oriented, with the intent of helping clinicians and institutions overcome the behavioral barriers to translating knowledge into practice. Behavioral barriers include attitudinal and skill-based deficits of individual clinicians, as well as organizational barriers, such as poor coordination of care, at the institutional level. Other distinctive features include: IPPC’s focus on culturally respectful, family-centered care, robust pedagogical techniques for which EDC is well-known, interactive and interdisciplinary learning activities, the provision of curriculum materials free of charge, and the ease of access to all materials through this website.
