FPH ANNUAL CONFERENCE – The Politics of Healthy Change
Poster TitlePOSTER No1 / Developing a competency-based framework for public health education and training in India.
Abstract topic & Submitted By / Manifesto - A good start / Dr Acquilla S. D
International Faculty Advisor,
Honorary Senior Lecturer at Imperial College London
Visiting Professor at RDG Medical College Ujjain, MP, India
Background / In India, there is growing recognition for the importance of public health and workforce that is fit to deliver the PH. This has led to demand for appropriate public health education and training to address health needs of communities
Aim / To
- Identify and define the functions for Public Health in India
- Identify competencies to deliver those functions.
-Use these competencies in the curriculum design of the Masters programs in IIPH/PHFI
Method / We engaged 20 academics from the PHFI and IIPH over an interactive five-day workshop. Initially, to gain support on the approach to competency-based teaching and explored the state of competency-based education. We helped them identify current public health activities and problems, and then knowledge, skills and attributes required to address these by identifying the learning outcomes for the future.
Results / We identified public health functions and functionaries at various levels within the health system and organised these into broad categories. We then identified the knowledge, skills and attributes that were necessary to deliver these functions at the specified level of the health system. This activity helped us to identify specific learning outcomes for public health education. Participants have shared experience of using the competency framework in the design of the curriculum for Masters in Public Health. This initial framework will be tested on public health workers.
Conclusions / This work helped us think conceptually about a competency based framework for public health education, training and skills needed in service work. We recognise the need to build a common goal for the benefits of a contextual framework. Further test and dissemination of the framework is expected, to provide guidelines on its use in designing public health care and management programs and defining public health cadre in India.
Learning Outcomes / understand
-mechanics of working overseas in defined projects
-importance of correct methodology for acceptance of the outcome by those responsible for delivery of function in an overseas setting.
-importance of ownership of the working document by those who are responsible for implementation of the policy
-wider dissemination and acceptance of framework in the Country
