Details Considering that the promotion of interprofessional-based collaborative learning prior to university graduation will be important for resolving this problem, we organized a workshop for medical students based in Ehime Prefecture and evaluated its usefulness based on questionnaire surveys administered before and after the workshop. Consequently, it was ascertained that pharmacy, medical, and nursing students had a heightened awareness of “the importance of interprofessional collaboration” after the workshop as against before the workshop. Students’ degree of comprehension of the nature of the work in each category increased significantly. These results demonstrate the importance and effectiveness of students familiarizing themselves with the learning and work content of other fields by working with colleagues in different medical fields as observed in this workshop.
