Master adaptive learning has been adopted as a conceptual underpinning for professional development and continuous lifelong learning. The ability to adapt expertise to routine and uncommon situation is essential in all the health professions. Master adaptive learning encourages agility and creativity and provides ways to do this across the continuum of learning and clinical situations. To date, however, the concepts and strategies associated with master adaptive learning have been applied primarily at the level of individual learner.
This seminar explores how elements critical in developing…
The objectives of this seminar are for participants to

This seminar uses the insights and lessons from two different interprofessional CLE start-up projects, one associated with multiple academic and clinical partners and one being developed in concert with plans for a new family medicine residency program. The aim of both projects is to design transformative learning…
