Abstract

Many health professions incorporate interprofessional education (IPE) to prepare graduates for collaborative practice, although little is known about IPE implementation in nutrition and dietetics (ND) education. The purpose of this study was to evaluate IPE integration in ND programs and identify institutional factors impacting IPE availability and participation. One hundred sixty-seven directors of accredited ND programs responded to an electronic survey using the Interprofessional Education Assessment and Planning Instrument for Academic Institutions. Results showed that ND programs are incorporating IPE on a minimal basis and many institutional factors affect IPE participation, including academic unit and program accreditation type.
