Limited evidence exists regarding the effectiveness of learning approaches in supporting interprofessional wound care education transnationally. The aim of this pilot study was to explore the feasibility and preliminary impact of an international, online interprofessional masterclass in supporting baccalaureate health students' learning about wound care. Data were collected using multiple methods including quantitative survey, qualitative focus groups, and interviews with baccalaureate nursing, pharmacy, dietetics, podiatry and paramedicine students from two universities based in Australia and Northern Ireland. A retrospective pre-test design was used. A survey retrospectively assessed students' self-reported confidence and understanding before and after the masterclass, while qualitative methods explored students' experiences of interprofessional learning and wound care. Self-reported improvements in students' understanding of wound assessment and management, as well as heightened awareness of interprofessional contributions to patient care indicated the potential value of this interprofessional and international collaboration in supporting wound care education. Qualitative analysis identified four themes: recognising a wound is a person's wound; comparing international healthcare practices; fostering learner engagement; interprofessional recognition, acknowledgment, and understanding of each profession's roles, contributions and expertise. This pilot study has highlighted key issues to be addressed in future research examining the impact of a collaborative online international initiative on baccalaureate students' interprofessional learning about wound care.
