Forming an integral part of many professional programmes, changes in provision and approaches to practice-based learning and placements will be explored, drawing
on theory and findings from existing literature and illustrated with case study reports. Opportunities for innovation, the challenges for incorporating interprofessional practice learning and evidenceinformed guidance for future practice will be considered.
