About the Roundtable

The TFEL project held a roundtable on Facilitating Multiple Partnerships and Collaborations. The facilitators shared key findings from the research. The dialogue focused on these promising practices:

Practice 1: Promoting community engagement to reciprocally meet community and field education needs.

Practice 2: Developing a community of practice for diverse groups and organizations by going beyond individual or institutional agreements.

Practice 3: Different institutions working together to avoid competition for practicum opportunities and developing community partnerships through university and field offices.
