Examples Demonstrating Attainment of the Core Competencies for Public Health Professionals

Overview

The Core Competencies for Public Health Professionals (Core Competencies) are a consensus set of skills identified by the Council on Linkages Between Academia and Public Health Practice (Council on Linkages) as being desirable for the delivery of the Essential Public Health Services. To support use of the Core Competencies, the Core Competencies Workgroup has drafted examples for several competency statements illustrating how competence can be demonstrated. These examples appear primarily in the competency domains of Financial Planning and Management and Leadership and Systems Thinking.
 
The draft Examples Demonstrating Attainment of the Core Competencies for Public Health Professionals document is available for public comment. This draft is current as of August 19, 2013 and updates a previous draft from June 19, 2012. Help improve this tool by providing feedback on the suggested examples. Are the examples relevant to the work of public health professionals? Do they support understanding of the Core Competencies? Are there additional examples that could further expand this tool? Comments and suggestions can be posted in the Comments section below or emailed to Council on Linkages Project Manager Kathleen Amos at kamos@phf.org.
