Fellowship for Leaders in Humanistic Interprofessional Education

The Faculty Fellowship for Leaders in Humanistic Interprofessional Education aims to build a collaborative, humanistic (meaning guided by the humanistic values of respect, service, compassion, integrity, honesty) group of clinical and education leaders from different health professions, who will get to know, appreciate and respect one another and their professions.

 

Faculty fellows have the opportunity to enhance their teaching and leadership skills, reflective capacities, teamwork, and interprofessional collaborative role modeling in humanism and professionalism, and to work together to promote humanistic values in learning environments and organizational culture.
