Interprofessional Collaboration, Microcredential (Beginning Fall 2025)

The microcredential in interprofessional collaboration recognizes graduate student engagement in collaborative learning experiences. This competency-based microcredential is open to any SLU graduate-level student who engages in interprofessional or interdisciplinary experiences from three categories: Foundation, Immersion, and Integration. To qualify for the microcredential, the student must submit six (6) artifacts from these interprofessional or interdisciplinary experiences with at least 1 from each category. Students can choose from a number of pre-approved learning experiences or apply to have a specific learning experience included in the microcredential. After submission of six (6) artifacts, students will complete an assessment of their overall experience.
