Preparedness for infection prevention and control practice among undergraduate students: A systematic review
There is considerable variation in the scope, content, and delivery methods for IPC in undergraduate programs. The use of traditional face-to-face teaching methods remains widespread despite its lack of interactive or practical aspects. It is important to incorporate technological methods that promote experiential learning in IPC and to develop standardized curricula for IPC at national, regional, and international levels.
