title: Creating Collaborative Care (C3), Medical University of South Carolina.
abstract: The Creating Collaborative Care (C3) program is a university-wide, comprehensive interprofessional education initiative. It was developed as the university's Quality Enhancement Plan for reaffirmation of accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. Four student learning goals guide the initiative and development of its components. C3 activities include required academic (including health care simulation experiences), co-curricular, and faculty development. C3 was established in 2007, though some activities pre-date its establishment. Funding is primarily from the university, though small grants have supported development of a few activities. Since aspects of the program are required, students receive academic credit for participation; for co-curricular activities, they do not. The C3 program extends over the course of a student's education at MUSC.
