Interprofessional practice
This week Dr Jane Payler from the University of Winchester, UK has been visiting Charles Sturt University. On Monday she presented a lunchtime lecture titled "Researching interprofessional practice in early years settings in England". Today she met with a group of early childhood and speech pathology researchers from the Research Institute of Professional Practice, Learning and Education (RIPPLE) to explore more deeply the issues of and opportunities for interprofessional practice. It has been a very informative and generative time of networking and planning for future collaborations.
