Palliative Care Education and Training Collaborative

Since 2003, the Australian Government has funded Queensland University of Technology (QUT) to undertake the national coordination and project management of the Program of Experience in the Palliative Approach (PEPA) and the Indigenous Program of Experience in Palliative Care (IPEPA), and to implement the Palliative Care Curriculum for Undergraduates (PCC4U).

The Department of Health and Aged Care continues to fund the Collaborative in the 2023-2026 funding phase to build on the achievements of these previous initiatives.

1. Palliative Care Curriculum for Undergraduates (PCC4U)

The aim of PCC4U is to encourage the integration of palliative care training within entry to practice courses in the University and Vocational Education and Training (VET) sectors and in relevant post-graduate curricula, thereby improving the skill and confidence of the health and aged care workforce to care for people with palliative care needs. PCC4U achieves these aims by:

Promoting and sustaining the inclusion of the principles and practice of palliative care in all health care training, including University and selected VET sector courses, through development and maintenance of flexible learning resources and tailored support for educators, and by providing a platform for innovation and research in palliative care education.

For more information visit www.pcc4u.org.au

2. Program of Experience in the Palliative Approach (PEPA)

PEPA aims to enhance the capacity of health professionals to deliver a palliative approach to care by:

Providing clinical placements and experiential workshop opportunities for the non-specialist palliative care health and aged care workforce across rural, remote, and metropolitan settings,
Enhancing linkages between specialist and non-specialist palliative care providers to improve the quality and coordination of care,
Providing resources and development opportunities for host specialist palliative care services to create learning organisations with a commitment to, and skills in, supporting ongoing learning.

3. Indigenous Program of Experience in the Palliative Approach (IPEPA)

The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Palliative Care Workforce Development project has been an integral component of both PEPA and PCC4U projects. In this phase, we will build on our previous work with Indigenous communities to further highlight the unique strategies required to provide culturally appropriate learning experiences for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health care providers and build cultural safety capabilities for those who support learning in palliative care settings.
