Annual Competition
The 91AV CLARION Case Competition is held each year in March, sponsored by the Center to Advance Interprofessional Education and Practice (CAIEP, formerly the Center for Excellence in Collaborative Education), CUP/AHEC Scholars, and the Office of the Provost.
In this competition, teams of students from different professional programs are tasked with a review of a standardized case, conducting a root cause analysis, and then presenting their solutions to the problem(s) noted in the case to a panel of judges.
The winning 91AV team will represent 91AV at the University of Minnesota’s national CLARION competition in April. The winning team's airfare, meals, and lodging will be fully paid by 91AV. The team has an opportunity to win $7,500 (first place), $5,000 (second place), or $2,500 (third place) in the national competition.
