Trainers: Trainer Intercultural Nursing Educators and Students : un progetto europeo per promuovere la competenza culturale
The profile of an intercultural competence educator for healthcare and other professions
Peer Reviewed ArticleOnce upon a time, an international student started a 3-day work shadowing in a community setting. At the end of the first day, the community supervisor refused to work with the student stating that the student was uninterested, because she didn´t ask any questions! The student was shocked and said that she was really interested. She thought it was impolite to ask the expert any questions. Once they were guided to reflect on their different expectations, they both agreed to continue and learned a lot.
This situation reflects the need for trainers and students to be interculturally competent
