Co-Founder of the IPE Colloquium, Professor Debra Rowett PSM, President of the Council of Pharmacy Schools, ANZ, commented on the Colloquium.
“The Colloquium is a fantastic opportunity to meet with colleagues, to have your ideas challenged, to be able to debate those ideas, and that’s the absolute essence of Colloquium - connecting with each other and learning from and with each other in this interprofessional environment,” Professor Rowett said.
Professor Rowett and Professor Karen Strickland, Chair of Deans of Nursing and Midwifery, will announce an outcome statement as a public commitment to building a resilient and professional health workforce.
