Abstract/Short Description

Purpose: Interprofessional education (IPE) seeks to train students to collaborate across professions, but assessing interprofessional competency is challenging (Blue, 2015). Because faculty variation may be one barrier, this study explores grading patterns to determine whether there is variation between faculty and whether professional differences impact this variation.
