Presenters will discuss the interprofessional curricular design, and use of simulation technologies and immersive community-based experiences. The session will include presentation of information, demonstration of technology-based simulation (Dr. Hologram), and discussion of potential application in participants’ local area. This training program addresses the persistent need for specific training to improve the quality of care for individuals with IDD by health/related services professionals.
