The International Partnership for Health Informatics Education (IPHIE) fosters global collaboration in medical and health informatics education. The 2024 IPHIE Master Class united 20 graduate students and 9 faculty members to examine the use, perceptions, and impact of large language models (LLMs) in healthcare. Students designed, piloted, and analyzed a survey on LLM use by healthcare providers and patients, addressing its impacts. Despite challenges in coordination and time constraints, students developed leadership, problem-solving, and communication skills. This international experience emphasized the value of global collaboration in building both technical expertise and essential soft skills, preparing professionals for multidisciplinary teamwork.
