Interprofessional Global Health Education and Credentialing for Higher Ed

Global health issues, including population health disparities, government policy, and pandemics, impact care delivery at all levels. Healthcare is interconnected in ways never seen before, and interprofessional collaboration is imperative for individual and population health and wellness. Nursing and health professions programs have a noticeable gap in global health coverage across the curriculum. Purposeful global health competency integration in healthcare programs can address this gap and prepare healthcare providers with the knowledge needed to address health disparities on a global level. This paper highlights the process developed by a nursing program to embed interprofessional global health competencies in undergraduate and graduate nursing curricula, data dashboard development to streamline competency tracking, and digital badging to showcase competency attainment.
