CCNE and NTF Standards Related to IPE

From the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) and the National Task Force on Quality Nurse Practitioner Education (NTF):

CCNE Standard III-J: The curriculum includes planned experiences that foster interprofessional collaborative practice.

Elaboration: The program provides planned didactic, simulation, and/or clinical practice experiences that prepare students to engage in interprofessional collaborative practice. The program affords opportunities for students to collaborate with a variety of individuals and/or organizations that enable students to develop the necessary communication and negotiation skills to enhance patient outcomes.

Required to provide examples of didactic, simulation, and/or clinical practice experiences that prepare students to engage in interprofessional collaborative practice.

NTF Criterion III.F: The NP curriculum includes interprofessional educational experiences (IPE).

Required Evidence:

  • Curriculum plan that demonstrates how the program prepares graduates with nationally recognized interprofessional (IP) education competencies.
  • Curriculum plan that includes NP students’ didactic and/or clinical experiences with other health professions students. 
  • Student logs, reflections, and evaluation of learning experiences that demonstrate integration of IP experiences or documentation of IP scholarly work.

“The second influence is the inclusion of interprofessional education (IPE) in NP educational programs. The NTF agrees that IPE experiences are essential for preparing NPs for interprofessional practice (IP). The NTFS states that all NP students have IPE clinical experiences.”
