Introduction to the curriculum

The online curriculum consists of three broad sections:

The curriculum for specialist training in public health describes all the required components of training that to lead to a certificate of completion of training (CCT) in public health.

The training covers nine key areas of public health practice across the three domains of public health, as well as ethical and professional practice.

The curriculum provides a framework within which trainees and trainers can determine and understand the knowledge, skills, attitudes and behaviours which will allow a trainee to achieve the level of competence required of a specialist in the field.

It defines and describes the processes (recruitment, induction, assessment and remediation), phases of training, settings, learning methods and learning outcomes.
