Congratulations to Dr James Thompson on his ANZAHPE Fellowship

James is a senior lecturer at the University of Adelaide, where he contributes extensively across the interprofessional education courses within the School of Allied Health. His rich and diverse clinical experience in paramedic and nursing roles underscores many of the authentic learning approaches and teaching innovations that have become the hallmark of his work.

These efforts have led to educational leadership roles in paramedicine, nursing, and medicine throughout an academic career spanning more than 20 years. His research, supervision, and ongoing collaborations extend across multiple disciplines and professional networks, encompassing themes such as programmatic assessment, simulation, entrustment, competency, mentorship, and work-readiness. This fellowship appointment recognizes his achievements and sustained contributions to health professions education.

“I am looking forward to connecting and reconnecting with many in the ANZAPHE community, whose work and words have helped shape my own ideas over the years.”
