Popis: Rationale and Objectives: The literature surrounding interprofessional education claims that students who learn with, from, and aboutone another in well-designed interprofessional programs will practice together collaboratively upon graduation, given the skills to doso. The objective of this study was to examine attitudes to interprofessional practice before and after an interprofessional learning (IPL)activity. Materials and Methods: A total of 35 postgraduate medical imaging students attended a week-long mammography workshop. Thesessions provided a range of didactic sessions related to diagnosis and management of breast cancer. An IPL session was incorpo-rated on completion of the workshop to consolidate learning. Props and authentic resources were used to increase the fidelity of thesimulation. Participants completed pre- and post-workshop questionnaires comprising an interprofessional education and collabora-tion scale and a quiz to gauge knowledge of specific content related to professional roles. Responses to each statement in the scaleand quiz score, pre or post workshop, were compared, whereas responses to open-ended questions in post-workshop survey werethematically analyzed. Results: Seventeen paired surveys were received. There was a significant total improvement of 10.66% (P=.036). After simulation,there was a statistically significant improvement in participants’ understanding (P
