ighest quality health care is delivered not by individuals, but by teams. Most of health care curricula have carefully
focused on creating knowledgeable and skilled professionals but generally have not emphasized training their graduates
in team building skills. Team building training is blended in the curriculum in the form of Team-based learning (TBL), so as to
acquire team building skills to enrich their health care practice in any setting and make them a globally competent health care
professional. TBL is a well-defined instructional strategy that is being employed increasingly in medical education. Students
are held responsible for both individual and team learning. The Team-Based Learning process is aimed at teaching students
to apply knowledge. The workshop will combine brief presentations that introduce the fundamental principles about best
practices related to effective designing and implementation of TBL in health care professional education
