Introduction: Implementing interprofessional learning (IPL) in health profession curriculum is difficult despite widespread acknowledgement of the importance of interprofessional collaborative health care practice. The aim of this study was to develop a balanced scorecard using a Delphi technique to document and monitor implementation of IPL in a faculty of health and medical sciences. Methods/Results: Twenty-four academic teachers and health service clinical supervisors completed two electronic questionnaires as part of a two stage Delphi survey. Consensus (70% agreement/disagreement) was achieved for 27/36 items in round one and for all 10 items in round two. Ten performance metrics were subsequently identified. Discussion: The Delphi was an efficient and effective method for identifying performance metrics for monitoring faculty IPL implementation. With a strong focus on learning outcomes and assessment, the scorecard will enable the faculty to formally monitor implementation of our IPL strategy over time. A follow up process of identifying data sources for reporting against each of the scorecard items has already highlighted gaps in our current practices, predominantly in staff professional development and assessment.
