For the 2019 Nexus Summit, we have decided that it is an important time in the growth of interprofessional practice and education to move the focus firmly into practice. The theme this year focuses on optimizing clinical learning environments (CLE) as interprofessional learning organizations. Together, valued stakeholders in the clinical learning environment including health professionals, health system leaders, payers, educators, students, policy analysts and patients and families will convene for learning and development toward an action-oriented agenda.
Building on our continuing a commitment to action-oriented results, the Nexus Summit 2019 is tackling big ideas around how to optimize the interprofessional clinical learning environment through innovative engagement, idea generation and skill-building. Recognizing a shared goal of improving learning and performance in practice, Nexus Summit 2019 will provide the venue and framework, utilizing principles of design thinking, to tackle wicked problems while seizing new opportunities.
The clinical learning environment is where collaborative practice and education come together to improve health care, deliver higher value and prepare the workforce for the work today and ahead.
- Optimizing the Interprofessional Clinical Learning Environment

- Quality Interprofessional Education and Accreditation
