This report presents results from a two year research project (2003-2005), undertaken by the authors. The research has examined the process, mechanisms and outcomes of the Common Learning Programme funded by the Department of Health and based in the North East of England. This, along with programmes at 3 other sites (Southampton, London and Sheffield) was funded to offer an opportunity to examine the issues and possibilities of interprofessional education fro pre registration or undergraduate health professionals. Whilst other programmes have mixed class room based and practice based learning, the North East Programme has focused on learning in practice.
