| Sumario: | Purpose The Simulated Virtual Healthcare System Model (SVHSM) Interprofessional Education Project was designed to implement an evidence-based simulation training program, to prepare pre-licensure nursing students for practice in public health and community settings, as members of interprofessional teams, in meeting the HRSA priority: transforming the workforce by targeting the need. Methods A descriptive study was conducted using an online survey of nursing and health professions students. At the end of an eight-week online seminar series, students were asked to rate their level of agreement with 14 questions measuring satisfaction with content taught, experience engaged in interprofessional teamwork, accessibility of faculty to address learning needs, and the extent to which the experience would be recommended to peers. Findings A total of 229 ethnically diverse nursing and health professions students, consisting of ten cohorts, completed a 5-point Likert scale survey, where a score of 5 measured the highest level of agreement. A weighted average of the responses across all categories of the survey ranged from 4.17 to 4.55, demonstrating high levels of agreement associated with questions regarding teamwork and group projects, satisfaction with content taught, accessibility of faculty, and the probability that students would recommend the experience to peers.
