Overview Video of the ILEAP Model

ILEAP is a structured, comprehensive model to teach and assess collaborative care team skills to interprofessional student teams in a clinical environment.

Taken together, the ILEAP components seek to enhance student knowledge, attitudes, and skills regarding collaborative care; provide opportunities for student teams to add value to patient care at the clinical site; prepare faculty and coaches to facilitate learning experiences that promote team skills development; and assess and evaluate the effectiveness of the model activities.

The ILEAP model demonstrates how to connect foundational learning with the application of collaborative team skills in patient care. This module presents an overview of the ILEAP components, Readiness, Clinical Experience, and Assessment/Evaluation while orienting the viewer to more detailed information on this website.
