Developing Communities of Practice – Workshops

Co-Design Communities of Practice for IPC Leads

 

Be part of shaping a supportive learning community tailored to your needs!

 

What is this about?

As an IPC Lead in residential aged care, you play a vital role in infection prevention and control. This project aims to develop Communities of Practice specifically for IPC Leads like yourself across Australia.

A Community of Practice brings together people with shared roles and interests to learn collaboratively, share knowledge, and support each other

How can I get involved?

This new research project, from Dr Jo Tropea at the University of Melbourne, invites IPC Leads, residential aged care managers, quality and executives to co-design these Communities of Practice through workshops. Your input will help shape:

1.Practical aspects – When/how to meet, sharing information etc.
2.Learning needs – Topics, training, and support for your role

Have your say by attending one of our 60-minute online co-design workshop.

Workshops will be held on the following dates:
Friday 17 October 2025 10am-11am AEDT (IPC Leads)
